Who we are

On February 22, 2001, a group of British car enthusiasts met at the Odell Park lodge to discuss the future of an organized group of some sort. Gary Arsenault, who was instrumental in bringing us together, led the discussion which made clear there was plenty of interest in moving ahead with plans. The consensus seemed to be that this would be a fun club, the emphasis on fun with the focus on touring and occasionally getting together to discuss British cars in some non-formal environment - members' garages, Odell park, or even an occasional pub meet.

PEI Fall Drive - Update

Here are a few photographs from our PEI trip. There aren't many, as everyone already knows what rain looks like!

Despite the weather, we had a good time. We did run into a problem on the way when my driver's-side wiper decided it didn't want to work anymore. Ernst and I pulled over in Petitcodiac, and Ernst swapped the wipers around. The repair took about an hour, and we were very lucky that the rain stopped while he was working on them.

The fix lasted until we arrived in PEI. Unfortunately, it was raining quite heavily, and then the passenger-side wiper decided it didn't want to work either. I removed it and continued on to Summerside.

Even though it rained for much of the trip, we had a great time driving around the island. It also turned out to be an excellent test for my Spitfire soft top. After stretching it last year, it no longer leaks.

All in all, it was a great trip and a successful test for my soft top.

Cheers,

 John
