There
was a big turn-out for our winter road run on
January 18. Two Bedford Goddess fire engines (one red, one yellow), three
Jeeps, six Land Rovers, a Champ, Ferret and Dodge M37, followed by four civvy
Land Rovers made their way through the Northamptonshire and Leicestershire
country lanes from Harpole, near Northampton, to Welham, near Market Harborough
for a late lunch.
There
was soup stop at the famous Naseby Battlefield, where the course of English history
was changed in 1645 and a visit to the Welland Valley Vintage Traction Club at
Market Harborough.
It
was great to see dog walkers, other pedestrians and horse riders smiling and
waving to our vehicles as we passed through numerous small villages.
The
road run was organised, as usual, by Roger and Janet Higgerson with help from
Gordon and Vicky Beale.
