A sunny and misty morning with veteran cars
A sunny Saturday and a misty Sunday morning in a wooded area north of Paris, the location where a group of veteran car enthusiasts from France, the Netherlands, England, Belgium and Germany gathered with cars built before 1906: add some French joie de vivre and you have the 2021 version of Rallye des Ancêtres en Picardie. Organised by the French club des Teuf-Teuf, this annual drive was again a great success.
A wide variety of cars participated this year, from a trio of Léon Bollées to a 1902 Napier and from a very original De Dion Bouton to a 1904 Mors used by the PreWarCar.com team.
The pictures speak for themselves!

What a wonderful weekend in France enjoyed by only a few cars, I believe only 39 but driven by fellows and ladies from France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and 3 cars from Great Britain. The weather was kind but a little foggy on Sunday morning, the champagne was cold, the food was as always plentiful and the company extraordinarily friendly. I have "competed" in this event some 10 times and it is possibly the most enjoyable run that I do every year, there are no time constraints and no competition just beautiful open roads with friendly modern motorists enjoying our drive around the Forest in and around Compiegne and Pierrefonds. My congratulations to the organisers and my fellow participants for organising and enjoying a great weekend. Even the car seemed to be having fun too and behaved itself!
