Sunday will see cars, lorries, and motorbikes of all shapes and sizes take to the roads for the Wisbech and District Historic Vehicle Club's 31st annual road run.
Approximately 150 vehicles from a bygone era (and all more than 25 years old) will take to the highway, some dating to the 1920s.
The route will take them from the start at Somers Road Car Park in Wisbech, departing from 9.30am on to Tydd St Mary, Holbeach, and Peterborough, for a half-way stop at the Bauermedia car park at Lynchwood by around 11.15am.
The return journey starts at 12.45pm, passing through Whittlesey, and Wisbech St Mary before finishing back at the Somers Road car park from 2pm, approximately 70 miles later. The day's awards will be presented at 3.30pm.
This event has become the biggest of its type in the area, only missing one year due to the pandemic, and is sure to attract a lot of attention, not least from people waving as the vehicles go by.
The event, which is sponsored by Elgood's Brewery, last year raised £1,000, which was split between four charities, local to the Wisbech area and chosen by members.
Earlier this month, around 100 members with 35 vintage and veteran vehicles attended the club's first-ever summer barbecue at a member's home in Murrow, and it was captured on video by club member David White.
Rex Meaden, the club's press officer, said the event went extremely well and the hosts have offered to hold a similar barbecue again next summer.
"It was a lovely event and I think everyone enjoyed it," he said.
The charities that will benefit from this year's road run have yet to be chosen, but Rex said: "I think we may have more money to distribute this year as are monthly events, such as raffles, have gone really well.
"It is lovely to be part of something that helps the community, and at the same time is our big interest."
