The Blues CruiseTeam Enter The Sucata Run

A team of four from Mountsorrel and Syston have decided to take part in this years Sucata Run to raise funds for charity. This is a non-competitive banger rally starting from Rouen in Northern France and working down through France and Spain until 2000km and four days later reaching Cabo Da Roca in Portugal, Europe’s most westerley point. This may seem like a not too difficult task until you consider that event rules stipulate the car must cost less than £250!  The event takes place between the 26th and 30th August.Further details on the run, including the route, can be found at http://www.sucatarun.com/The charity being supported is Gemin-i.org who aim to assist children in developing countries by providing high-tech educational solutions to the spread of HIV and AIDS.
