Chestnut Parade Bushy Park teddington. this sunday

Post by Dave999 »

Basically a parade of vehicles.
Anyone with interesting car van bus bike , cherry picker can join

Teddington gate of Bushy park turn left as soon as you get in

11:30 am sunday

wait on the grass to the right of this thin and winding path until 12-12:30

parade through park to rapturouse applause and cheering
just like you won the FA cup

park up

have a burger
go on the carousel

go home

done it the last 3 years

its just a nice way to spend sunday morning

parade is filled with military vehicles and range of vintage and classic cars
shed lods of motorbikes and the local scooter club.

i followed a 73 porche and a citroen DS last year and had an austin 7 and a datsun 180B behind me.

way infront were 50 odd bits of militray motorised kit, filled with uniformed enthusiasts and a man on a penny farthing

takes about 3/4 of an hour to do the 2 mile route

good laugh

if my car starts tomorrow i will be there on sunday

no sign-up no tickets no arranging just turn up

should have put this up ages ago but forgot
