THE BAY TO BIRDWOOD RUN For vehicles manufactured between 1956 and 1977. Was first held in 1980 when the Federation of Historic Motoring Clubs invited SAS Channel Seven and the National Motor Museum to join forces in developing an event to commemorate the issuing of the first Australian driver’s licence to Dr William A Hargreaves of South Australia in September 1906. The agreed concept was to be a biennial “run” for pre-1950 vehicles from Glenelg (The Bay) to the National Motor Museum in Birdwood. By 1988 when just over 1800 entrant vehicles gathered for the Bicentenary event, the Bay to Birdwood was established as Australia’s premier historic motoring event and earned Australia-wide recognition in 1990 by winning the National Tourism Award as the best special event of festival staged in Australia. In 1997 the Classic was introduced to cater for vehicles 30 to 50 years old. This is run on the “odd” years and has become so popular with South Australian & interstate Classic vehicle owners that the entrant numbers are now capped. Both events now Start at Barrett Reserve, Adelaide Shores and Finish at the National Motor Museum, Birdwood. The Bay to Birdwood is always held on the last Sunday in September, which in 2009 is 27 September and is for vehicles manufactured between 1956 and 1977.
