In early September eleven Morgan Three-wheelers and their owners joined together in a Scottish gathering at the Cally Palace hotel in Galloway for this year’s GNCR event which Andrew Mellor and Keith Hayes had kindly agreed to organise. An action-packed weekend with great drives through amazing scenery and really interesting visits, stop-offs and destinations planned.
A really big thank you to Andrew and Keith for organising and managing a brilliant weekend. Look forward to the next Galloway Glens in 2028 – here’s hoping!

We had a very informative tour |

The final drive of the day was to the Isle of Whithorn for a look round and an ice cream |

On the final night we retired to the Billiards room for a game of Snooker, England v Scotland – a very lengthy game ensued, sleep beckoned and a draw was finally declared. The end of a great weekend. |

Roger brought along his new two-speeder 1926 family and on Saturday evening gave it it’s first run up the drive |
One happy Roger! |
