The John Clegg Mini Miglia 2022

Saturday 12th March

Supported by JC Mills Ltd

Many thanks from the organising team to the 47 crews who made it to the start of this year's John Clegg Mini Miglia. They were treated to a run going north between the carriageways of the M6 then turning through Shap and reaching Appleby, before a quick dip in the Leases and Smardale fords took them to the lunch halt at the Fat Lamb in Ravenstonedale.  The afternoon run travelled south over Garsdale Head and via the Chapel-le-dale road into Ingleton, before turning west through Wray, over Tatham Fell into Slaidburn and then to the finish. 

All the crews (bar one who diverted en-route to their own finish) made the finish in plenty of time to enjoy the meal at Banny's Fish restaurant in Colne whilst reviewing the day's outing, meeting rallying folk they sometimes hadn't seen for years (or maybe since the last Mini Miglia,) and reminiscing over old times.

The total number of code boards and marshal's signatures taken into account at the finish was 31.  Well done to crews in cars 1,  6, 10, 12, 15, 25, 26, 28, 30, 35, 41, 43, 49 and 55 who got all the code boards.  

If you missed one or two, the tricky ones which caught most out seemed to be on the way up the hill past Garsdale Station, on the junction at the top of the climb up Helk's Brow, and on the road leading into Gisburn.

We look forward to seeing you all again at the John Clegg Mini Miglia 2023, or perhaps at the Autumn Tour on Saturday 1st October?
