How was your Edinburgh Trial?
We really enjoyed our Edinburgh. After 20 + years in the Beetle we went open top with my 1172 Dellow in Class 0, a real adventure. We were delighted with the route and the sections, they were great fun without being damaging, for us at least, although there were a couple that I wouldn't have wanted to do in a saloon with limited ground clearance.
I think we climbed all the hills but I'm not bothered about that. For me it was the challenge of getting that old car round the route and driving it back home again. No mechanical problems apart from having to fill it up with water every hour as the radiator is leaking. However, we knew that before the event so were carrying a lot of water and some Radweld in case it got too bad.
The other class 0 competitors we spoke to all enjoyed themselves. Enjoyed the do in the evening although we didn't appreciate the waiting staff hovering to clear your plate away as soon as you finished, even if you hadn't. Also the do didn't seem very well attended and if the hierarchy were present why no speeches?
