Club Triumph's Coast-2-Coast Run 2025

Last weekend saw the 2025 edition of Club Triumph’s Coast-2-Coast Run. I hadn’t done this event till date. So when I was asked by Howard to co-drive with him in the course car I couldn’t refuse. Initial plan was to use his TR7-V8 (the late Paul Darbyshire’s car). But it turned out the wiring on that car wasn’t fit for purpose yet. Long story short; the course car was a bland but reliable modern Japanese car, a Suzuki Vitara. Which was a good thing! Being the course car we set of 2 hours before the start of the event. And as such we got the full brunt of a rain/thunder storm while traveling through the Yorkshire Dales. But the Suzuki took it all in its stride. Glad that the entrants traveling two hours behind, missed it!

But the biggest disadvantage of course was that being two hours up front, we missed the start at Ulverston and the cars at the half way stop in Doncaster. So only a few pictures of the cars arriving at the start (at the Lakeland Motor Museum in Ulverston) and the finish at the East Anglia Transport Museum in Lowestoft. To begin at the start of the event in Ulverton;

And a few from the finish at the East Anglia Transport Museum in Lowestoft;
