Unfortunately, in light of the roadmap to exit lockdown, we will have to cancel this year’s Albert Ball Memorial Run.
The 7th May, 2022 is the 105th anniversary of Captain Ball’s demise and Morgan Three Wheelers have been invited to a commemorative event planned in Annœullin so we'll put together a plan nearer the time.

I have been following you virtually on these trips for some years now. The thought of this makes me want to buy a M3W. If only I had garage space. in 2020

I can’t imagine my back surviving this journey, but I still want to do it!

I can’t imagine my back surviving this journey, but I still want to do it! The European element of the Albert Ball is typically only around 200 miles or so across 3 days plus whatever you need to do to get to/from the Chunnel. It's suitable for 2, 3 and 5 speeders. Hope you can join us next year and I'm sure we'll meet up an an event or two before then.

Hi Greg,
We have done trips to the beautiful south a number of times in the three wheeler, and while it sounds a bit daunting to begin with, I find time passes really quickly on the road.
You will have to stop regularly to fill up, so lots of opportunities to straighten the back etc !
If you are comfortable with motorway driving in it , and I must admit on motorways I drive pretty defensively , the rest just falls into place.
The Albert Ball run is a blast by the way, and worth the miles.

When I collected my car I had already committed to a trip to Italy 3 months later, on the drive home after collection I thought that Italy was going to be an awful long way, but in reality it was fine 2300 miles in 2 weeks.
