Similar story Graham, managed to get there without the hood, just a few spots close to the hall, I missed Richards Badger, just! And on the way back to Leicester all was fine until 3 miles from home when light rain started but the sky was black and ominous, 2 min after putting the car in the garage the hail started and it poured down for nearly an hour.
Great venue and many thanks to Donmog and the organisers, I should have been on the MK Classic run but Mal-de-Navi meant I was solo so went to Kedelston instead.
