The 1000 Miglia 2021

The 39th historical re-enactment of the race of the Red Arrow where 375 cars in various categories follow the 1000 Miglia 2021 route from Brescia to Roma and back. Stage 1 Brescia to Vireggio, Stage 2 Vireggio to Roma Stage 3 Roma to Bologna and Stage 4 Bologna to Brescia.   It is the biggest classic car rally in the world and apparently the entrance fee is approx. £50k! We went to Radda, a small town the rally passes through, to watch the event.  

We wondered the small historical town and then had lunch at a restaurant which was on the corner of where the cars we diverted to the stage area in the centre of Radda.  We arrived a little early as the first of the cars, the Ferrari’s, didn’t appear until half 2.  Unfortunately, we had to leave after the Ferrari’s had passed through as we had a vet appointment as Alfie got a grass seed in his ear.  I must say the vets here are so much cheaper than in the UK! Alfie now has ear drops and is all ok.
