The Boot and back

1937 James Arrow Ace Super Sports Normally the Boot & back is on the first Sunday in March.  This year lockdown intervened so the event was postponed until October.  We were there … and taking part: this is Andrew’s 1937 James Arrow Ace Super Sports.

This would be the last time the Boot & back was organised in Weston by the V-CC″s North Road Section.  The next one would be in 2023 when the Flat Section took up the event.
