Some of them had to be hand-cranked to get started, and the rain was a dampener, but more than two dozen veteran vehicles, most of them more than a century old, managed to make their way from the Octagon to Brighton on Saturday afternoon.
Photographer Peter McIntosh was there to capture the start of the event.
