Entry 364, 1904 4 cylinder 32hp Simplex Mercedes.
Story and photos by Jonathan Sharp
Sunday morning dawned bright and sunny and living in Brighton means I can cover the finish and do not need to get up before the birds to make the 7am start. This year I decided to photograph some of the entrants on the outskirts of Brighton so positioned myself initially by the major junction of the A23 London road and A27 Worthing road. I thought my timing was perfect as I had just parked the car when two entrants came passed but then nothing for the next half an hour! By about midday the stream of entrants was pretty steady so before moving onto the sea front I took some more shots between the roundabout and the Black Lion Pub (if you know the area then you will know where I mean).
