Rod heads to UK’s Classic Motor Show
Vintage Adventurer Rod Wade made a detour on his return journey to the USA for the second attempt on the Ocean2Ocean Challenge – he stopped off in the UK to visit the Lancaster Insurance Classic Motor Show at Birmingham’s NEC.
The biggest indoor motoring event in the UK, Rod was invited to tell the 65,000 strong crowd all about the O2O and what he is fundraising for – to fit out RV and Camper vans with dialysis machines for sufferers to be able to have the freedom for a weekend away or short holiday.
Rod was interviewed by Wheeler Dealers Mike Brewer and Edd China on the Live Stage. He was in good company as the other special guests included British racing legend Sir Stirling Moss and 70s TV icon David Soul from the TV series Starsky & Hutch – all of them pledging support for Rod’s cause.
