NOW, THE BEST PART, WE'RE IN ! A copy of my email query :

Dear Sirs: I fear on your site that I find no inclusion of the most British of vehicles, the most quintessential, the most gentlemanly, ie: the Morgan Three Wheeler. This is perhaps an oversight ? Very limited production ? This venture has been widely discussed on the Talk Morgan forum, as M3W's are indeed trikes. I would very much like to attend in Chicago, IL, USA; indeed I may induce a few friends with M3W's as well. May I have your handshake on this ? Very truly yours and all that ... Cheers ! Or as I am like to say ... Tally Ho ! Conrad E. Alexander

Fantastic e-mail to the DGR organisers nice one centurion "tickity boo" old boy !
I posted the link for information, not solicitation. By your donations I presume neither of you are able to attend yourselves. Tis a shame as indeed you both possess the very qualities of the event !
ON SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 25TH 2016, TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DISTINGUISHED GENTLEFOLK IN HUNDREDS OF CITIES WORLDWIDE WILL DON THEIR CRAVATS, TWEAK THEIR MOUSTACHES, PRESS THEIR TWEED AND SIT ASTRIDE THEIR CLASSIC AND VINTAGE STYLED MOTORCYCLES TO RAISE FUNDS AND AWARENESS FOR MEN’S HEALTH, SPECIFICALLY PROSTATE CANCER RESEARCH AND SUICIDE PREVENTION.
Interesting this year the rules specify the machine types which only mention sidecar for three wheelers unlike previous DGR entry rules.
I contacted the organisers reference to entering the M3W this year, who tell me "It's exactly the type of interesting vehicle suited to the event", and they advise "I contact the local organiser & ensure they're happy with the entry ensuring loads of them (M3Ws) don't jam the event"

So that's a green light then
Looks like an orange light to me! I thought I might support it but reading the blurb it seemed they really want classic bikes only. A local organiser might be OK with an occasional M3W it seems but I wouldn't want to overshadow a nice classic bike parade... bah humbug etc etc! On the other hand sounds like a perfect idea for a Morgan equivalent (aka the Distinguished Driver's Ride)...
nice one centurion "tickity boo" old boy !
