Well, there were 4 of us but that was enough to make it worthwhile.
The South Birmingham guys got rained off and 2 of us are still building so only MikeLR was in his car.
We did get a fair bit of rain and hail too.
Just get over next month  .

As Martin says.
We got to Bridgenorth (via Clee Hill) and the weather was great. However; we stopped in Bridgenorth to take a weeee and it poured down. Rain and then
hail;
 
when we got to Bridgenorth....
So we retired to a local pub (called The Bear strangely!!!) and waited it out. We didn't leave until about 2pm - hence we didn't bother
coming the rest of the way 
And it continued to rain all the way home 
There are more pictures in my archive. It was a beautiful day on top of Clee Hill - you could see for miles.

The car next to you looks well weather proofed. How well did it stand up to the weather when travelling????

Seing the above picture I must be lucky !
Bit of hail at Whitchurch and wet roads on the way down.
OK it hailed when we were in the pub but my makeshift cover kept the inside dry.
As I turned left up the A41 the sun came out and had a nice dry sunny drive home.
Mike.

The car started just fine. The engine is more covered that it was on the bike. I was able to make a snowball from the hail that collected on the
passenger's seat, which was nice. The picture captures the scene well but it wasn't as wet as the drive home from Total Kit Car Live.
