Driving Event at Portland Sunday 17th July

Post by Nick »

Southern Region has been invited to meet up with the IAM at Portland prison DT5 1EQ where they have reserved the car park from 4:00. The IAM team will conduct a fun skills driving event around cones with points awarded for accuracy.

There will be a chance to win “Southern Region Driver of the Year”.

For those coming from the East, I suggest meeting at 12:00 on the 17th July -
The Bakers Arms
Dorchester Road,
Lytchett Minster,
Poole, BH16 6JF
This is just off the A35 and would be a suitable place to gather.

From there The Blue Vinny, (DT2 8TE at Puddletown) makes a good stop for a bar snack followed by a cruise down to the prison.

Please let me know if you would like to participate.

Entrance to the fort, now a prison on Portland. Quite an unusual venue.
