Jim Clark Museum Road Trip
Saturday 2 November
We have arranged a bespoke Jim Clark Museum road trip for members and friends to visit the recently extended and re-opened Museum in Duns. Starting from Edinburgh, the offering includes: a route map, museum tour, lunch at the new Jim Clark Bistro, a talk from Doug Niven (Jim Clark’s cousin), a visit to the Jim Clark memorial Clock in Chirnside and a stop off at Soutra Coffee House on the way home.
We can accommodate up to 10 cars on the trip, with two people in each. It’s not a competition; just a leisurely day out to visit the magnificent new version of the museum and enjoy some good company. Parking will be available close by and the new bistro is walking distance.
