Concours cars hit the road for Pebble Beach Tour d’Elegance

-

More than 200 of the cars that will displayed on the 18th fairway of the Pebble Beach Golf Links on Sunday as they compete for honors in the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance ventured out onto public roads Thursday for the annual Pebble Beach Tour d’Elegance.

They traveled along the original 17-Mile Drive and down coastal Highway 1 with a lunch stop in Carmel-By-The-Sea, on roads lined with admiring car enthusiasts glad for the opportunity to see such vehicles being exercised.

As a car owner, why risk one of the world’s finest automobiles in such an environment? Because cars were built to be driven and, if there is a tie on the judging scorecards on Sunday, participation in the Tour serves as the tie breaker.

Down to Big Sur and back via the historic Bixby Creek Bridge
