Toast to Coast 2nd Oct NY500

Post by Yad3100 » Sun Sep 05, 2021 3:56 pm

I had my first visit to NY500 cafe this morning, attending with my RS mates, although I did take the M3 as escort is now on SORN.

BMWCC has an event on Saturday 2nd October, starting at the cafe and then to Whitby. @marc76 and other mates are attending and I will take the XD if other Alpina are coming. @Woolly11 and @hap can’t be too far from you, why not joking us.

Nice cafe, lots of room in the car park and some special stuff in show room, no BMW but a RS2600 racer I need to have in my life.

https://bmwcarclubgb.uk/event/toast2coast/

"Welcome to our first ever toast2coast event.

A word spin on the popular coast to coast runs that have been around for years.

This one is a bit more relaxed. It’s a natural combination of our two more popular events, the Breakfast Meet (toast) and the seaside run (coast).

We will be gathering at 9am – 11am at the wonderful NY500 Car Café near Pickering where we will be hosting a selection of spot prizes, e.g. ‘oldest BMW’ and the BMW with the ‘highest mileage’, as well as an award for the ‘BMW of the Day’ as chosen by the management of the venue.

We will then be departing for Whitby on the short but spectacular drive over the Moors aiming for the Headland car park adjacent to Whitby Abbey where once again we will be presenting another award. This time the ‘Tourist Trophy’ presented to the BMW owner that has covered the most miles from home to reach Whitby.

We will assist the tourists and the newbies to our part of the world with a selection of different routes and points of interest, but all with the same destination.

We will also have a shortlist and map of the many recommended Fish and Chip shops that Whitby is famous for so you can round off your day the ‘Yorkshire way’ with a right good fish supper."


I've never done this event before but obviously its a bit of a tour across the North York Moors as well as the cafe meet :D

Well there is only one chippy to have that’s the magpie, world famous
I’m really considering to attend this one before the bad weather kicks in either just to the cafe and/or both
Should we do a roll call to start and hopefully add some others

I was considering this, but unfortunately #062 will be otherwise engaged on another trip north of the wall.

Hope you have a good run out.

As Marc suggested I am defo going fuel depending, our mate ‘the Stig’ is also coming with the e30 touring. I was hoping to get a few more interested but doesn’t seem to be much interest. I was going to take the xd if we had a few coming but may just jump in the m3.

Given the uncertainty on weather I think your plan is a good base option, and will push for a fish supper if the weather allows.
