Vintage Car Trials with plenty of Mud

[strikerstu]

Yesterday was the start of the Vintage Sports Car Club, (VSCC) trialling season, and with all the recnt rain, there was no shortage of mud.
Based at the Bugatti Owners Club venue at Prescott near Cheltenham, using several hills locally and several within the grounds of Prescott.

It was fun, or should I say slippy under foot when walking, so one can only imagine the fun behind the wheel.
