ACE Cafe

Postby Stef » Tue 18.10.2005, 13:15

Some of you may know ACE Cafe. It is a popular Cafe just off the M1 on the North Circular in Londong.

It is known for it's retro style and historic meeting place for cars and bikes.

They have special nights for different car makes and it usually draws a fantastic turnout. The bikes and cars also usually show off on the road just outside too doing doghnuts burnouts etc. 8)

I'd like to get an Elan gatehring organised there and will arrange for the priority parking in front of the cafe to be reserved for good photos etc.

Anyone interested?

I'd probably suggest a time nearer summer but if there is good interest then what's stopping us from doing more than one meet there?! :D

I'd be up for an Ace at a time of year when the evenings are light and there's a chance of decent weather. The place has a lot of history and folklore associated with it.

Lots of cool cars take up most of the space now :wink:

Besides, bikers and cars can get on you know! It's just got a fantastic petrol head atmosphere!

Here is a pic of the TVR night which became a Cerbera special. How cool would that look with Elans?! :D
