An interesting day at the NMCR held a Mile and a half from my house at Steps farm, North Newton. A great assortment of Micro Cars, including Berkeleys, Messerschmitt’s, Zundapp’s, Fiat’s, Trabants, 2cv’s and makes to numerous to mention. I join them along with a good few of the CSC members in their Lomax’s and Blackjacks etc. The weather was good so good turn out, they were here for four days, three days driving around Somerset and today a static display.

Cool cars, Richard ! Glad you posted this, as there's a Portland micro/mini car show every year about 70 miles from me, and I went a couple of years ago, but somewhat lost interest when I discovered that "micro" was up to 500cc, and "mini" was up to 1000cc, so my 1064cc Triking wasn't eligible. However, I just checked their FB page again, and now they have a "petite" class for cars 1001cc to 1600cc , so maybe I'm eligible, although the Triking may be over some weight limit, as it seems like otherwise a whole host of cars would be eligible (including our Prius ). Anyway, I'm going to check it out.

Well covered Richard,
Could be a Trifles article?

Excellent! Perhaps Trikings there in force next year?
