IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING...a Petrol Ped Car Meet !
**Petroped’s Meet and Greet Event: All Details You Need to Know**
Hey guys and welcome to Petroped! If you’ve guessed by the title of this video, yes—I’m announcing *finally* a meet and greet. Since I did my last one, which was a long time ago, probably a couple of years back, I’ve had so many comments asking when I’d do another one. In my recent video where I visited the new B Road Hunting Club HQ for the Cooper’s Mini Meet, I talked to Ed and Rog, who run the B Road Hunting Club. We discussed organizing a Petroped meet and greet there, and we’ve finally nailed down a date!
We want to try and do this while restrictions are lifted and before winter comes. So, mark your calendars—Saturday, October 3rd is the big day. The event will take place at the B Road Hunting Club HQ, located in Tunbridge, Kent, just south of Maidstone. I know it’s not perfect for everyone, as some might find it too far—after all, it’s a couple of hours’ drive for me—but there are some brilliant roads nearby.
Our main goal is to find a venue where we can host this event successfully. If it goes well and there’s interest in doing another one, I’ll look into hosting it further north and maybe schedule it for spring. For now, let’s focus on October 3rd.
**What to Expect at the Meet and Greet**
The meet will run from 10 o'clock in the morning until 1 o'clock in the afternoon. All cars are welcome—whether you drive a “worst shed” or the best supercar, we want to see as many pedal cars as possible! The venue has a nice big field next to the B Road Hunting Club HQ, so there should be ample space for everyone.
**Ticket Information**
First things first: there will be a charge for this event. I’m not making any money from it at all—this is purely for covering costs. We need to hire the field next to the club’s HQ, and we have to ensure COVID compliance by conducting track and trace properly.
We’re using Eventbrite for tickets. The cost per car is £8 if you book in advance. However, there’s a small administration fee, which brings it to £9.21. If you arrive on the day, the charge will be £10. This slight increase is because we’ll need to take your details and phone number for track and trace purposes.
**Special Offer**
To make things a bit more enjoyable, we’re offering a special panini and coffee bundle for £7—normally priced at £9. It’s a small way to help balance the costs of attending.
**Important Requests from Petroped**
I want to emphasize the importance of social distancing during the event. Since we’ll be taking lots of photos that will appear on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube, it’s crucial that we’re seen adhering to these guidelines.
Additionally, I kindly ask everyone to drive responsibly near the B Road Hunting Club HQ. The success of such events relies heavily on the support of the local community. If people are driving like idiots or doing burnouts, it could harm the club’s relationship with the locals. So, please arrive with grace and leave with respect—it’s a motto I truly admire.
**Reflections on Past Events**
Looking back, when I hosted my first meet and greet at Goodwood a few years ago, I only expected about 10 cars to show up. Instead, we had an incredible 80 cars! It was such a memorable day. For the second event, which I had to organize very late—a week before—it also turned out to be a huge success.
We’ve chosen this venue because it can accommodate probably a couple of hundred cars. Hopefully, that’s enough space for everyone who wants to attend.
**Cars and Accessories**
I’ll be bringing both my Minis—Charlie Clubman and Ruby Roadster—to the event. I’m also hoping a few other cars featured on my channel will make an appearance too. There will be plenty to look at and lots of like-minded people to chat with, so bring your lovely cars along for everyone to admire!
**Call to Action**
I don’t want to end up sitting in the car park alone—please come if you can! If you’re planning to attend, maybe even organize a convoy with friends. It would be fantastic to see as many of you there as possible.
**Additional Info**
I’ll post updates on all my social media platforms, so make sure to follow me on Instagram and Facebook for more content. Also, check out the B Road Hunting Club’s page—they’ll be posting plenty about the event too.
If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment below or email me directly—I’ve included my contact details in the description. I’m looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible on Saturday, October 3rd.
If you enjoyed this video, don’t forget to give it a thumbs up and subscribe for more content. I’ll catch you at the meet and greet—if not, I’ll see you in the next video! Drive safe and take care.
