The Pride Of Longbridge - Cofton Park: 12th April 2014
The 9th Pride of Longbridge rally was held at its usual location Cofton park, Birmingham on the 12th April 2014. The event is organised by the Austin Longbridge Federation and is open to all vehicles that have a connection with Longbridge. For the first time any club associated with ALF was able to pre-book a display area and at least 40 groups took advantage of this, ourselves included.
The day dawned finer than the previous year, dry if rather fresh, however there were still areas of the park that were boggy and best avoided. In all it was the largest gathering ever at the venue with a reported attendance of between 2000 to 2300 vehicles covering many decades and marques.
We had an impressive amount of vehicles arrive, so much so, we had to extend our designated area twice.

In all a very good, if at times bitterly cold, event with probably the most impressive amount of vehicles, with connections to Longbridge, ever assembled.
