Today was the annual FBHVC 'Drive It Day', an opportunity for those that have classic or historic cars to get them out, wind the handle and take them out for a run. A local group, called 'Snails', mainly pre-war Austins gathered at the Upper Lock Café by Bell House this morning for a road run around the area.
It is often the case that anyone with an interest in an aspect of transport, also has a close association with other forms, be it canals, cars, trains etc. At least three of the entries today were CCT members.
It is highly probable that there are many CCT members with shiny old cars tucked away safely in a garage. An opportunity to link CCT with this related transport hobby will hopefully be organised in the near future.
