Happy New Year 2020

Sturminster Newton New Year's Day Run is in its 25th year now and has become the local institution for nearby enthusiasts to greet in the New Year.

As ever there was a marvelous selection of old time machinery to view, from tractors to Lamborghinis.

Having stayed up later than intended and feeling slightly sorry for myself setting off from home at 9am I decided that the little Beesa Bantam would be a suitably gentle ride. The run was pleasant but the weather not kind, we moved through varying degrees of dampness from mist to mizzle and beyond.

Below a few snaps from the day. Happy New Year to all for 2020!

Allard parked up.

Aforementioned Allard again.

Armstrong Siddley.

Genuine barn find Sir.

Primed and ready to go.

Jaguar SS100.

Jag once more.

This Trident Hurricane roared past the Bantam and sounded
great.

Laverda RGS1000, quite a beast for the slippery county roads.
