Independence Day
Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2011 1:58 am
Hello All,
Well today is Independence day here in the states so to celebrate I woke up today and decided that I would drive the 1910 for the longest ride yet. By modern standards it was a short drive 14 miles but with two passengers and with some fairly steep hills it is not an easy task for a single cylinder car. But everything went so well I decided to drive back later in the day.
We even reached 40 mph at one point (down hill). So I consider this an independent day for Rover with 28 miles under my belt in a single cylinder 1910 Rover 8.
Happy Rovering
