MG CAR CLUB TYNE-TEES CENTRE
THE 2012 PRINCE BISHOPS RUN
8th JULY 2012
You are cordially invited to take part in the 2012 Prince Bishops Run, which this year starts from the historic market town of Stokesley. This is a tour of some 96 miles, taking in historically key points on the routes taken by the medieval Prince Bishops when heading for Durham Cathedral. Starting with a short drive up into the Cleveland Hills, to take in some breath-taking scenery, we then cross counties from North Yorkshire into County Durham, the “Land of the Prince Bishops”. After a lunch halt, the journey continues, visiting some splendid locations across the Palatine of Durham, and concludes on Palace Green in front of the magnificent World Heritage site of Durham Cathedral, (by kind permission of Durham University) where a light cream tea awaits all those taking part in the run.
An entry booking form can be found by clicking HERE. You can pay by Internet banking if you have that facility or you can send your cheque as instructed to Noel Lindford, made out to MGCC Tyne-Tees Centre. Once your payment has been accepted, along with all other entrants, you will receive Joining Instructions at least a fortnight prior to the event.
On arrival at the Show-field car-parks, (reserved for us) just off Stokesley High Street, all entrants will sign on and receive a driver's pack, and vouchers for hot drinks at an adjacent café, where there is also the option to purchase bacon butties, which can be pre-ordered on the entry form.
Following a Drivers' Briefing at 09:50, cars will leave at 1 minute intervals, with the first car leaving at 10:00am prompt.
* Please note this event is limited to a maximum of 60 cars, the most that can be accommodated on Palace Green in Durham.
To avoid disappointment, an early entry application is advisable!
