Proposed Route
Larne - Ballygally - Glenarm - Carnlough - Glenarrif - Cushendall - Ballycastle - Bushmills - Portrush - Portstewart - Coleraine - Ballymoney - Belfast /Home Total Mileage 120

i hope to have humphrey mot'd and insured and taxed again by then and would love to join you all for this one , i have missed the club involvement in recent times and hope that the success you all have had with the club over here continues to grow and without overstepping the mark , it would be nice for a few from the mainland to join us for this one because as i said before , for anyone who hasnt seen the antrim coastline the journey is well worthwhile :+:

Re: ANTRIM COAST RUN SUNDAY 26/09/10
as it is i couldnt in good conscience sell it and at the moment time is scarce so i am seriously considering looking for a dedicated classic car restorer to take the work or park it up in the garage over the winter as it is and do the work in small bits :think:
Re: ANTRIM COAST RUN SUNDAY 26/09/10
i know a guy who would do the work at a resonable price but he is in Bangor
