Joris Bergsma likes to invite you for a most simple and basic event meant for those who like to drive on own initiative, planning their own route while letting roll their own pre-war wheels. Without suspenders confining the motorcar to a trailer or similar sad contraptions.

The (first) Drivers Lunch will be in Schoonhoven in the mid-west of The Netherlands, on Sunday 21 January.
The idea is to drive from remote and diverse places (your home) and to get there 'on own wheels' with a pre-war motorcar. Just to have lunch, to meet friends, to enjoy break down chat and the old Dutch custom: complaining about the weather... and perhaps warm up a little.

So no trailers, no accompanying vehicles and no cars built later than 1940.
The organizers will not check if you really make it on own prewar power but we will encourage you to post milestones or memorable moments of your trip on a dedicated Facebook page. Or to produce more period proof of your trip like pan ready chickens... There will be a small award for the participant who has covered most kilometers/miles in order to arrive at lunch in time.

Participation will be free, food and drinks to your own liking and budget.
Based on our pre-invitation 15 cars have registered already.

We have arranged a pleasant and period restaurant with adjacent parking lot which can be seen from the dining room. In order to receive full details or to list yourself please call Joris at +31.653.362.640 or email at jb@jorisbergsma.com

Looking forward to meet some of you on Sunday 21 !
