RED EYE RUN  III

We took nineteen cars from Bletchingley to Brighton through 50 miles of dark country lanes taking in one tunnel (twice) and a beacon.

The start was at The Plough in Bletchingley where a couple of other car clubs were meeting at the same time. We were joined by a Lotus Elise and A Caterham Seven for the run.

The run was researched by Bob Larcombe who also provided the entertainment on a foggy Ditchling Beacon with some night sight binoculars..

Most of the pics are "artistic" or fuzzy to you and me. Here's some Fs at the Plough.
