The 'Don Valley Cruise'. Doncaster, 3rd Saturday every month.

The 'Don Valley Cruise'. Doncaster, 3rd Saturday every month. The 'Don Valley Cruise is a place where like-minded Hotrod & American car enthusiasts can go to meet and talk hot cars! See you there, 3rd Sat every month!

The 'Don Valley Cruise' is a place where hopefully like minded car enthusiasts can go and catch up with what's happening in the Hot Rod, American car scene, a place where rodders can meet up with friends and fingers crossed meet friends from way back that used to be in the hobby. What could be better, a cruise-nite, a beer and a burger and meeting up with others; does it get any better?? It can on

ly work if attended, so polish off that wicked ride, pump up the volume on the stereo and have a cruise over on the 3rd Saturday of every month, about 5 o'clock... Frankie & Benny's, next door to the Doncaster Bowl, Leisure Park, Bawtry Road, Doncaster, DN4 5NW... We'll be waiting for yer!

September '24, The Don Valley Cruise 'Cruiser of the Month' award this month goes to Dave Oliver from Bawtry with his absolutely awesome LS7 powered Cobra. Dave put together this stealth like beauty himself, long lonely nights busting knuckles till the early hours now enables him to have some fun out on the roads of Doncaster, and many more miles travelling to events up and down the country. Well done mate, and welcome to the DVC award winners family! 👏

September '24... Well the last meeting of the season went down well, with a good number of enthusiasts turning out for it. The thing about the DVC now is the vast cross section of vehicles that attend, which is a good thing, meaning each genre gets to talk and learn about others from the owners in attendance. Many thanks for all that came tonight, and to all the many other folk that have turned out this year, without you there is no DVC! 👏

As mentioned earlier, keeping cruise night quiet for a while seemed to have worked last night as regards the trouble makers who seem to be intent on spoiling other people's enjoyment, they stayed away, all was quiet on the night, mind, a couple of plain cloths Police and a drone in the air definitely helps, let's just hope they've realised they're not wanted!..... On the night Cruisers travelled from Scunthorpe, Sheffield, Wakefield, Dewsbury and other surrounding areas, a good selection of vehicles were on display, with a good crowd of enthusiastic public there to view all that was on show. Apologies for keeping the event quiet for a couple of months, but many thanks for attending this month and making it one of the best nights we've all enjoyed for a while. Looking forward to seeing you all again on the 3rd Saturday of next month.... 👌👏

August 'Cruiser of the Month' award goes to, well, me actually! When one person last night suggested it, I immediately dismissed the idea, but then someone else said the same, and when he asked how long the cruise had been going, (10 years ish), and why none of the rides I had displayed with over the years hadn't been picked, (🤔), I said ok, I'll pick mine if it makes you happy... So Mick Tebbs, and the '32 Ford Model B roadster, welcome to the Cruiser Award family! 😊 The car is a Jago glass body with a reproduction steel front end, Jaguar irs, Jago drop-tube axle, a 'BluePrint' 383ci stroker Chevy V8 (6300cc), with a TH350 auto box, all on a Jago chassis, and painted in Ford race red, originally built in 1978 by Bristol hotrodder Merv 'Magoo' Barnet, but recently fully rebuilt by myself and Ifan Miller at 'Millers Speed Shop' in South Wales. The hotrod rolls on, as rare as hens teeth, 11"x15" American Racing rear, and 3.5"x15" Fenton mag wheels on the front. I've owned the car for some 20 years now, and will never, ever sell it... Well that felt strange describing my own car, but thank you for the suggestion, it's nice to know you're appreciated, I guess it'll be another 10 years before I get the chance to do it again with another one of my rides?.... Thanks again! 😎

It seems that keeping the cruise night on a low burner for a couple of months has paid off! Tonights August meet was a really enjoyable event, where people travelled from far and wide to attend with a varied cross section of vehicles to display to a very appriative public. A nice family atmosphere which was very quiet, with no wheel spinning or unnecessary revving of engines was enjoyed by everyone. More pics and a write up will be on the DVC page tomorrow.... Thank you to all that attended. 👌

'Don Valley Cruise' update... Plain clothes officers will be amongst us at the next meeting, and willing to prosecute any bad behaviour. It has also been suggested that any public etc, that fear themselves in a dangerous situation because of idiotic driving behaviour, then please report this incident immediately. The event politely requests that anybody attending these meets do so in maintaining a safe environment for others, it is a car-park which does have a 5mph speed limit. If the event has to be marshalled in the future, then these steps will be definitely taken, a more quiet family orientated atmosphere is the ideal, but more stringent rulings will be added if necessary. Looking forward to the next DVC monthly meet.

May Cruiser of the Month Award goes to..... This is the first time in 10yrs I haven't done my job properly and given the monthly award the justice it deserves! To the owner, please forgive me, and anybody that knows him then please pass this on, I look forward to seeing him again asap... His absolutely gorgeous Beetle Karmann Ghia ragtop is the best thing I've seen by far for ages! Every single part of this car is immaculate, again, I'm so sorry for not getting anymore details regarding your car, or even your name, but I will asap, I unfortunately got distracted. I sincerely look forward to meeting up again... Welcome to the DVC award family. 👏

Some nice pics of tonight to follow asap.... But unfortunately tonight was somewhat spoilt as there seems to be an element who don't care about families with small children attending the event, and don't really care about others, so it seems we will use the assistance that is always on offer from the local Police force. I've said for ages I don't want to use them, but if others are going to jeopardise this 10yr old event, then so be it, I will! The Police showed up tonight 5mins after contact was made with them, a meeting has already been arranged with the Chief Inspector of this area asap, I know for sure he will use drones, plain or uniformed officers on site, whatever it takes to help us, so if the idiots want to take on the DVC supportive Police, then I don't fancy your chances! The event is open to all types of auto's, anything of interest to the public, but no burn-outs, no exhaust popping, no driving at speed is exceptable, it's a car-park, not a race track! It's simple, behave or don't bother coming, idiots are not welcome! An update of info after the meeting with the Police will be published asap, as soon as we know, you'll know. Thank you to those attending, thank you to those who attended and behaved themselves, and I look forward to seeing those people again next month......

Now my personal bit. I started this event 10yrs ago, I've done everything connected to it on my own, year after year I've bust a gut to give an enjoyable event for you to attend, I am not prepared to see it go down the pan, I will do whatever it takes to keep the Don Valley Cruise safe, I've reached out to ASBO's who have offered to help out. (Thank you). I had a bit of an altercation tonight with a person, I had to put him straight on his bad behaviour, but in the end I thought better of it and walked away rather than lower myself to his level by getting physical with him, and get myself arrested! So as of now, next months event is happening, but keep looking in on the page for info and updates. Please share this to other interested parties, and lets keep the Don Valley Cruise the safe place to be for car enthusiasts!..... Nuff sed!

Received this message for all you looking in.....

Hi, I hope this message finds you well!
I'm reaching out on behalf of Highway 63 American & Custom Car Club. At Highway 63, we're passionate about American Cars, trucks, Bikes, Custom, Hot rods etc and are looking to change the stereotypical view of the public that the car community is Anti Social . With that in mind we sought the approval from Hull City Council to hold monthly events and been given the use of a City Centre Car Park to do so. In doing this is gives us a safe and secure environment. Our current monthly events will take place on the 3rd Sunday of each month from 11am to 3pm at Myton Street Hull HU1 2PS. The events are strictly for American & Custom/Hotrod vehicles. We would like to extend an open invitation you your group members who would like to attend and join us. Would it be okay to post any of our events to your group page? If you would like any further details please do not hesitate to get in touch. Kind regards Chris

Plenty turned up for the season opener, but unfortunately it clashed with Doncaster Rovers last home game of the season, (unbeknown to us all), which meant the carpark was full of daily's, which meant cruiser parking was of a minimum. So no pics or 'Cruiser of the Month' this time around, but all will be back to normal for the May meeting. See you on the 3rd Saturday, the 18th of May. Sorry if it spoilt your run out, sometimes in life s**t happens and there's nowt we can do about it! 😎
