MG TF 135
Ready to go to the USA.

Tuesday 8 June 2010

Half Way.

Well I have got to the half way point (3 and a 1/2 weeks) of my trip around the eastern side of the USA, this past weekend I went to two shows the first was the Meeting of the Marques show in Hershey, PA, there was a good selection of British and other makes on show and they raised just over $2200 for the Children's Hospital, I was give the chance to go out in a Sunbeam Tiger V8 great fun to ride in some thing so divergent from the TF and the owner has had the car from new.
On the sunday morning it was a quick drive of around 110 mile to go to the Red Mill event in Clinton, NJ, and to meet up with some of the guys that I met on the first weekend of my trip on the Cecil Kimber Run as it was organized by the same MG group, this is an all British Car show and I saw some old favourites that I have not seen for a long time and they were all in tip top condition, you can see from the photos that it was a great setting for a car show held in the grounds of an old mill on the edge of town.
Now its off to Ohio to meet up with some more MG'ers on Tuesday who have asked me to drop bye so they can see the TF and then go out for dinner, then its around into Michigan to go to the Windsor-Detroit club night on wednesday before crossing over into Canada for the last part of the trip.
