People enjoyed the classic cars
This classic car was part of the Mayfair Antique Market this weekend. I was told by Tony, who runs the market, that people really enjoyed it and they want to put more out. For those who were concerned about the cars taking up parking spots, this one was placed in the plaza area of Mayfair, and didn't take up any spots on the street.
Even so, there seemed to be plenty of parking this weekend. We found parking each time I looked in and around the Central Grove.
They offered to let me drive the car around the block, but I didn't want to mess with it. I even turned down trying out someone's Segway the other day. I don't want to tempt fate.
I was asked by someone to see if the Segways can be part of the Bed Race Day (Memorial Day). There will of course be the bed races, but also waiter races that day. But I am told that Segways are too dangerous to race.
The Coconut Grove Bed Race will take place up and down Commodore Plaza. Many think it's more fun on the turn at South Bayshore and McFarlane and it was also planned to have been on the King Mango Strut route, through the center of town, but it appears that it will just be on Commodore Plaza.

Cool 1962 MGA 1600. Adds so much to the weekend fun. Sweet feeling of South Beach here in our Village. Was this MG really Sold at the Antique Market?
who makes this decision. the bed race was always on the South Bayshore and Mcfarlane turn and it makes a great day at Peacock park.
Segways appear to be safe enough to play polo:

So, after all the old cars did come to the Grove; first they were and then they were not, sorry that I got suspicious, wrong again was I.
it seems like the merchants on Commodore are making the decisions.
