Each year we have a fall garage tour referred to as "the Brass Monkey Tour" as it is usually cool and wet.
This year it was a little cool but a great day as we had close to 50 members show up to visit the five different garages.
We had a number of members drive vintage.
As the tour was in November some could not drive vintage as their insurance ran out as of the end of October
The day is started with everyone meeting at the Valleyview A & W for either coffee or a breakfast.
At 10:00 it is time to start your engines as it is time to leave for the days tour.
