If I might opine, the real trophy was the fact that they all drove down, had a lovely time and returned

Great going, hopefully the drive will attract more drivers from Nagpur to participate in long drives in future

No doubt about that bulldogji, it was fun with them. Hopefully we will get to see them once again in the Mercedes drive this year

The CIVAA , Nagpur team won an award each for the " Longest Distance Travelled Car/ Bike" to attend the rally.

CIVAA members gather at Limbanna's workshop for today's Nagpur- Mouda-Nagpur run (total distance to and fro about 45 kms) . All participants were in their cars. A lone biker Shri Arif Iqbal drove his Matchless bike that ran flawlessly. Newbies for the run included a VW Microbus, an Austin A 40 Devon and a Standard 10 Pennant. These participated for the first time in a CIVAA run.

The cars and the bike cruising on the N.H. 6 towards east of Nagpur city on the Mumbai-Kolkata road. The group had lunch at Ashoka Restaurant, Mouda and returned to Nagpur.

Though off topic, we would recommend this restaurant for travellers on N.H. 6. The food is very less spicy and has less oil and chillies, if proper requirements are told. Almost everyone in our big group had praises for the food quality.

Nice run there...by any chance that Microbus was in blue shade, before being done up and Standard Pennant 10 too was at a Garage around somewhere for a long time ( also she was present at 26th Jan Display).
