London to Brighton from Hyde Park Corner - 60 photos

[RobFN]

Unfortunately missed the 7am start due to late running busses in my area, but got there by about twenty past and stayed until the end, some fantastic vehicles, favourites for me were the Darracqs and De Dion Boutons, so no apologies for lots of photos of these!

Nice pics of the green dragon, but it was a shame that I ended up having to trailer it down to Brighton after it broke down en-route. Thankfully, the Haynes Apperson that I was supporting managed to make it without my assistance - which was just as well as Andy Green was driving that for some of the way.
