The North East Rover Owners Club was formed in November 1971 by a small group of Rover car and Land Rover enthusiasts under the umbrella of the Rover Owners Association. This later became the Association of Rover Clubs which NERO subscribes to annually so that club members are also individual members of the ARC. The aims of the club are to further interest in motoring, motorsport, caravanning and camping.
We promote competitions for all Rover marques in accordance with the Motor Sports Association. We also arrange caravan and camping rallies, tours, social events and meetings. Membership is open to owners and enthusiasts of vehicles of Rover manufacture. The catchment area for members stretches from the Borders to North Yorkshire, quite a large area but in places not a highly populated one. This keeps our membership around 120 to 150 members.
We hold monthly a meeting where members can socialise and discuss ways of improving the club with members of the committee. Members meet at Elm Road Workingmen's Club, Shildon on the FIRST Friday of the month. Further details and news of forthcoming events and trial results are given in our club magazine, `Northern Exposure', which is issued every four weeks approximately.
We regularly hold RTV trials and CCV trials as well as the occasional treasure hunt, children's bike trials and gymkhanas. On most trial weekends, a caravan and camping area is available.
We look forward to meeting you soon at future events.
