Bay to Birdwood

, , , , , , ,

The Bay to Birdwood is held each year. This year the 'drive' was for vehicles manufactured on or before 31 December 1955. The start is by the sea and the finish is a picnic event at Birdwood, a village in the hills and home to the 'National Motor Museum'. The distance is 70km.

If you just thought 'Hey, Kimbers doesn't even like cars!' well, you're right :D Cars don't interest me in the slightest.

Better explanation:

The Bay to Birdwood Run for historic motoring vehicles, is the largest most continually staged event of its kind anywhere in the world with an average of 1500-1600 entrant vehicles including cars, motorcycles, trucks and vans.

What did you do on Sunday? I sat on the side of a road with a glass of wine and watched cars drive past


Happy looking people in a green car




The event is not just for cars. If you own an old bike or FIRE ENGINE, you can probbaly enter


Someone didn't want their photo taken...probably knew it would end up on a blog and wanted to protect his identity :wink:
