San Diego Rolling British Car Day 2007

When tax time rolls around it’s time for the San Diego British Car Club Council’s annual Rolling British Car Day.

Normal car shows are great but there’s nothing like getting out on the road and driving ‘em. There are great roads and beautiful countryside around San Diego and the organizers do a wonderful job of planning the course each year.

It starts out in a parking lot somewhere around town where they hand out route instructions then cruises around and ends up someplace else for lunch. For the last couple years lunch has been a picnic in some pretty setting.

This year’s picnic was dampened by a bit of rain (and hail) but our spirits were not!

Breakfast, kicking tires, making up stories…

This year they had two routes, almost exactly the same but in a few places they split us up so we could double back on each other and see lots of other cars instead of just the ones immediately in front and behind you.

So what if an Italian car sneaks in here or there, it’s all good. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

Looks like a fun time. I was planning to go but I have WAY too many projects unfinished and needed to take advantage of the day off. Thanks for the photos even though they don't make up for missing the event... AGAIN! Love the shot of the Deloreans.
 
Looks like the weather was even a bit 'British'. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif
