As a full member of the Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs (FBHVC), the Alfa Romeo Owners Club are delighted to support the Drive It Day 2021, scheduled for 25th April 2021 (one week after our Spring Alfa Day). And 2021 will be extra special – it is in support of the NSPCC’s Childline, a hugely worthy charity.
First introduced in 2005, the format for Drive It Day is a tried and tested formula. The Federation sets the date each year (as close as possible to the anniversary of the 1000 Mile Trial) and publicises the event nationally.
The many clubs that comprise the Federation’s membership then plan and schedule regional and local events throughout the country. The events are as varied as the vehicles taking part and include Drive Outs, Rallies, and meetings at local beauty spots or historic sites.
Important venues such as The National Motor Museum, Beaulieu, Brooklands, Lakelands Motor Museum, The British Motor Museum, Gaydon and Bicester Heritage are a few of the major locations that usually participate but there will be scores of events the length and breadth of the country.
The Alfa Romeo Owners Club will be scheduling as many activities as possible all around the UK via our Sections, Covid-19 permitting of course.
In the meantime, we encourage members to find out more about Drive It Day at https://www.driveitday.co.uk/ and consider buying a Drive It Day 2021 plate to support Childline at https://www.driveitday.co.uk/shop
In the meantime, we will be liaising with all our Section Secretaries in the New Year to arrange local and regional driving events, so be sure to keep in touch with your Section and keep your fingers crossed for a less distanced situation by the Spring!
