London to Brighton 2008
After constant rain on Saturday the early morning start was dry.
I managed to get some good pictures,
Roger Newbery and Jack Ruler also sent some excellent shots.

SHORT VIDEO of cars leaving Hyde Park.

Jim King and I fire up his 1902 Stanley Type "B" in Hyde Park.
Jim's son Bill turned out in the early hours to run us up to London.

Jim stands proudly beside his perfectly prepared Stanley.

As dawn breaks the cars line up in Hyde Park waiting to be called up to the start.

Jim and I arrive at Ray Clark's coffee stop, for a very welcome cup of tea and hot dog.
