Blue Ridge Runners’ American hot rods and trucks thunder into Burnham-On-Sea

-

Almost 100 classic American hot rods and trucks thundered through Burnham-On-Sea on Saturday lunchtime (September 9th) in a mass procession of enthusiasts’ vehicles.

The Blue Ridge Runners hold their cruise each year at this time and made their way through Highbridge and then into Burnham via Burnham Road and Marine Drive, passing along the seafront, before leaving via Love Lane.

With horns blaring and a varied line-up of vehicles on show, the mid-day procession attracted scores of interested onlookers along the town’s roads.

The Blue Ridge Runners were formed in 1989 to link up motoring enthusiasts from across the South West who own hot rods, trucks and other unusual vehicles.

Thousands of pounds are raised for local charities from the group’s events, with BIBIC, the British Institute for Brain Injured Children, benefiting this year. Our photos show the vehicles moving along Marine Drive.
