NC Mountain Drive in a MGB

A first for me since the 90s


Highway 66 and 89 are some fine roads if you ever want to take your sports car out for a spirited drive. Lots of fast swooping turns and tight switch backs. Plenty of people along the way to wave at and a few quirky General Stores to stop off and grab a cold drink.

That is what about five of us did this morning as part of the regular meet up of Winston-Salem area MG owners. It was a blast and the first outing of that kind for me since the 90s. Man oh man was it fun and the whole time I imagined that, "if only I had a BGT, then the whole family could be with me right now."

It was a good time, with good people. I made a movie about it. Pretty funny, but I tapped into this muvee software that is on my computer. It's really cool. The quality is a bit poor, but what can you expect with a cheap digital still camera. Enjoy!!

Oh, and as a special bonus, I picked up a special package on the way back to get my car - my son.
