Anybody out there who remembers the annual run to Brighton for MGs? Mainly As & Bs but Fs & TFs were making inroads.

Does it still run? When? Details?

Hopefully geoff is sitting out there somewhere waiting for something like this. I hope so geoff.

Yes John - it still goes on. I think you are referring to the Regency Run which is a joint effort by MGCC,MGOC & MGOCC. It's started from brooklands in the last few years and runs down to Madeira Drive at Brighton with parking on the seafront. This year it's on 11th May. We in the South East tend to go to Basingstoke Festival of transport these days as an alternative for those that don't want to spend £30 or so to enter.
