The first London to Brighton run took place on November 14th, 1896. It was【21】org______to celebrate the passing of a law which made it easier for cars in Britain to be driven on the roads. Before then, the law【22】req______a driver and an engineer in the car and a man walking in front of the【23】veh______with a red flag warning of its approach.
Since then, this annual run has become one of the most popular events on the British motoring calendar,【24】w______ crowds of over one million lining the route. Only the【25】v______oldest cars, constructed during the ten years between 1895 and 1905, are allowed to take part in it.

The 60-mile run is not a race—there’s an official coffee stop on the way and the cars are restricted to an average speed of only 30kph. The only【27】rew______for finishing is a medal, which is awarded to everyone who【28】r______Brighton before 4’ 00pm. The run traditionally【29】att______participants from all four corners of the world, including Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. Since the youngest car is nearly a hundred years old, some of them【30】b______down of course. But for the owners of the 400-plus vehicles, it’s simply being there that brings the greatest pleasure.
