To Register for any of  the Routes, above 

….The MG100 Cavalcade from John o` Groats to Land’s End 2024 sees the continuation of the MG100 Centenary celebration with this exciting event. The Cavalcade will be making its way through Scotland with five, yes five different routes planned by the MG Caledonian Centre therefore this is a great opportunity for all MG owners from all over Scotland to take part in one or more routes. There are various ways you can take part. You can be at the start or finish points only to greet or wave off the cars, you can attend part of a route or complete a full route in your area.
Each Centre will be in charge of a baton which is a life-sized effigy of the founder of the MG marque, Cecil Kimber. Cecil will be handed over to the next Centre in turn as he makes his way south to Land’s End.
There is no charge for attending any of the days/routes other than perhaps £10 for charity (Lupus UK and the Alzheimer’s Society).
The MG Caledonian Centre is different from every other Centre involved in that we have a huge geographical area to cover which means Scotland had to be split into five days/routes whereas other centres have one route to plan. For this reason, the vastness of the geographical area does not lend itself to organising traditional Tulip System route books, this would be a huge undertaking, therefore it was  decided to use Google Maps to plan the routes and provide owners with links to open routes on their mobile phone to follow on the day of the runs.

This event is open to all MG Clubs.
