Mike’s Memorial Crank Up

On 21 September Hereford and district preservation society held a vintage engine crank up and vehicle display at the social club, station rd Credenhill in memory of the late Michael Bond.

Mike was chairman of HDPS for some 24 years, he was a good friend to many in the vintage world and the motor trade. Mike had worked in the construction industry and a machine shop making parts for Concorde and finally ending up at Bay Horse motors as retail shop manager. In retirement he could be found at a vintage show almost every weekend during the summer.

Around 60 people attended the event and an excellent buffet was provided by the Life and Soul kitchen from Credenhill.

A prize raffle and collection in aid of Prostate Cancer UK raised £455.
