Vintage cars and bikes carnival - The Alexandra Girl's English Institution

The Alexandra Girl's English Institution, a school in the Fort area of Mumbai is set to turn 150, and as part of the festivities, there is a display planned of vintage and classic cars and bikes.

http://www.dnaindia.com/mumbai/repor...ns-150_1676409

The display is on the 12th and 13th of January, and entry tickets are priced at 100 ruppees, as contribution towards the fundraiser for the school.

I'm sure the kids will really enjoy it, and I will make it a point to visit.

Well, I did send my Dodge and went on Sunday evening on the 13th of January to collect it, Kasli and Bulldogji were there too. There were many bikes, including this AJS which you will again see soon. The owner was wearing a T-shirt with a picture of his bike printed on the back, when he sat in front of me I took a picture.
We gave our cars not expecting anything in return except maybe a certificate, we were pleasantly surprised to receive a certificate with a hamper of food stuff and an encased silver commemorative coin. That was very pleasing.

Cheers harit

Re: Vintage cars and bikes carnival - The Alexandra Girl's English Institution

A superb display, I'm glad I could attend. Many of the bikes I had not seen before, like the immaculate Goldstar - she really was something! Kudos to Jehangir for making it happen.

Special thanks to bulldogji, kasli, harit and anyother TBHPians that I missed out who displayed their machines.
