XKCC Yorks. & NE Region: Inaugural Meeting on Saturday 14th March 2026
I’m pleased to announce the first regional meet of 2026.
In the past, I’ve been told, the XKCC used to hold a monthly breakfast meeting at The Rhubarb Triangle in Wakefield on the 2nd Saturday of the month. There is still an informal meeting of XKs and F Types.
I’m proposing to use the venue again for a meeting on Saturday 14th March 2026 at 10am and hope that as many of you as possible may be able to come along and introduce yourselves and your XK.
We can take a view on whether to continue (or not)!, as previously has been done, on a monthly or bi-monthly basis.

Penrhyn Quarry Truck Tour
After breakfast at the Beach Pavillion Cafe we will take a short drive to Penrhyn Quarry (Bethesda) where we will embark on convetred army trucks for a tour to the top of the quarry. A 75 yo friend of mine has done this tour and says it is brilliant! We have a dicounted price of £20 pp (usually £25).
Folowing a coffee we will drive up through the Ogwen Valley to the Swallow Falls Hotel for lunch from their varied menu (light to full lunch available).
For those who feel like a walk they can cross the road to visit Swallow Falls, for the rest it is relaxing in the hotel or a walk around Betws y Coed.
THE TOUR IS NOW FULLY SUBSCRIBED WITH 30 VICTIMS, I MEAN GUESTS, SHOULD MORE SPACES BECOME AVAILABLE I WILL UPDATE YOU.
