Monte Carlo Rally stopover at the Olde Bell 1959

Post by rayw »

Did you know that in 1959 the Monte Carlo rally stopped off at the Olde Bell in Barnby Moor, which just happens to be the meeting place for the SYNN region. To commemorate this occasion a photoshoot will take place at the Olde Bell on September 6th I have attached a photograph from 1959 and a copy of the text sent to the media (sorry I haven't as this won't accept DOC's or PDF's) Once it is on the SYNN website I will attache the URL. The Olde Bell will try to recreate this photo using our club members and as many Porsches as can be parked in the front car park. If you intend to participate can you let me know or the Old Bell (address in the text) Arrive around 6pm if possible or earlier for a better place. A few of us will be eating before hand as usual.

See you there.

Ray
