Gully Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 The chap who established Classics on the Common decided a few years ago it had become too large and stepped down, then establishing Classics in the Walled Garden at Luton Hoo, which is a great evening. Sadly, this clashed with something else I had planned this year so I missed out, but that evening has a lovely atmosphere and no traffic issues!

Paula Posted July 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Well it was brilliant. Really well organised. Lots of marshals and signs. loads of interesting cars and bikes too. The pubs were well prepared and had outdoor bars and BBQ and you could get a shandy straight away. Definitely recommended. The only downside was the heat. Next time i'll bring a table and umbrella! very little shade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
