Riley Birdcage Sprite Overcomes the Muddy Challenge in Great West Motor Club Trial, 1938
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by renowned artist Bill Brunell, we witness the thrilling moment when Riley Birdcage Sprite, with its registration number CPO302 proudly displayed, competes in the prestigious Great West Motor Club Trial of 1938. The photograph showcases a classic car from the 1930s era as it navigates through treacherous terrain. Amidst a picturesque backdrop of hills and mud-covered tracks, a determined male driver can be seen assisting his beloved Riley Sprite. Metaphorically representing human perseverance against nature's obstacles, he pulls on a rope attached to the vintage car to free it from being stuck in muddy grounds. This image not only captures an exciting motorsport event but also highlights Britain's rich motoring heritage. It serves as a testament to the resilience and skill required for off-road rallying during that time period. Preserved for posterity at the National Motor Museum, this monochrome masterpiece transports us back to an era where driving was more than just transportation; it was an exhilarating adventure. With its timeless appeal and remarkable attention to detail, Brunell's work immortalizes both man and machine as they conquer challenges together on their quest for victory.
