Congratulations to Jon Myhill who completed the clockwise Lap yesterday, having previously completed the anti-clockwise Lap in September. The clockwise Lap is known as the “Beautiful Ultra.” Participants have 24 hours to run the 47 miles. Jon completed it in 12 hours 23 minutes.

Delighted to sponsor the The Worshipful Company of Carmen Master Carmen’s Charity Ball. Aways fun, but an important event for raising funds for the Carmen’s two charities - supporting a wide range of educational and training needs as well as the transport and logistics industries.

A great Backhouse Jones Spring reception last night at Royal Automobile Club and good to see so many Confederation of Passenger Transport members and industry colleagues
