Last Sunday the Jaguar Association of Greater St Louis held their (presumably) first annual “Blue Line Roads, Fried Chicken & BBQ Pork Steaks Rallye,” down to Washington and back.  Yeah, it was a tad cool (mid-30s, IIRC) and yeah, the clouds eventually came in, but hoo-hah, what a great drive and what great fun.

Something like 20 cars and 40 people (or thereabouts) participated, including a strong contingent from the Gateway Miata Club plus a couple of three rather different vehicles, two of which are shown above.  AND, two Triumphs made the drive: John and Donna in the Spit6 and the Rieman’s in their Spitfire.

The Hendrix’s and the Taxmans came up with an excellent route with two good stops.  The Knights of Columbus hall in Washington for fried chicken and BBQ pork steaks constituted the first stop, while a visit to Head’s Store in St Albans provided the participants with an opportunity for pie, coffee and ice cream.

My complements to the organizers and JAGSL on the proceedings.  This was a particularly good drive.
