Old Cars, Bikes & Coffee

A reasonable turnout on Sunday 21 March – certainly another really nice-weather day made it very pleasant. Unfortunately our Coffee Cart owner forgot to book the date in her diary, and she has passed on her sincere apologies to all of those who missed out on their ‘proper-coffee fix’ for the morning. Luckily a backup of instant coffee and tea was soon wheeled out from the clubrooms, and although it was free, it didn’t seem to offer quite the same kick (well, according to Kevin Clarkson anyway!).

Join us at our regular Sunday Morning Coffee Gathering CUTLER PARK

Some of the cars at the March OCBC.

Have you ever driven a Model T Ford?

At the next OCBC on Sunday 18 April

Malcolm McGibbon is going to bring his 1912 Model T Ford Raceabout along to allow anyone who has never driven a Model T Ford before (or anyone who wants to reacquaint themselves with one) the chance to have a go in the safety of the club grounds. Having had a go myself for the first time during the Annual Rally, I can say this is an opportunity not to miss. Normal coffee service will be resumed next month (they promise!), so do come along and bring any interesting bike, car or other vehicle out for a chat and some mutual appreciation of other people’s vehicles. Starts at 9.00am, free to leave when you like, and all over by 11.30 or so.
