We had our 1st Long Man Run for Pre War Motorcycles yesterday. Organised by the Sunbeam MCC. A great turn out with 23 machines lining up to have a crack at the 33.7 mile road run course through the lovely Sussex back roads taking in the famous chalk giant at Wilmington. A finishers medal was awarded to each rider to complete the course courtesy of Filching Manor Motor Museum and Julie Diplock of Elk Proms fame Donated three glass tankards for best Veteran, Vintage, and Post Vintage machines. The oldest taking part was a 1904 Rover Forecar and youngest a 1938 Triumph. All 23 entrants made it back to collect their medals. Just a couple of hiccup with one puncture ( mended on route! ) and one with a fuel blockage also sorted out to make the finish.
Very well done to everyone that took part.

A good gathering and a lovely group to show around yesterday. The Alfa Romeo Club Goodwood section.

A first time visit from Yorkshires finest motor car. The Jowett owners club. Jowett starting building cars as early as 1906. Becoming a popular marque before the 2nd world war. Post war the Javelin and Jupiter were sold in reasonable numbers.

Here is a picture of myself standing by K3 at the BlueBird festival at Coniston in May all kitted out and ready for action. This photo by Neil Draper was part of an article about the festival that appeared in Motor Boat and Yacthing magazine last month. K3 was quoted as making several runs. Twelve to be exact.

I was out today on the 1904 chain drive Mercedes racing car and paid a visit to our local Festival of Transport at Hellingly. This event is celebrating its 50th anniversary and is well organised by the Eastbourne Historic Vehicle Cub. There really is something for everyone with Veteran, Vintage, Post Vintage, Classic cars, Modern Classic Cars on show. Buses, Steam Traction Engines, Military Vehicles, Commercial Vehicles, Tractors and more! Well worth a visit next year if you have not been before. Always over the August Bank Holiday. Here is a photo of the Mercedes, with my favourite other car at the show a lovely Edwardian Wolseley.
