Not only was this a great chance to see some classic vehicles, you could also participate in the rally by riding on one of the buses to Caldes de Montbui. Funnily enough the bus that had most passengers was in service from the late 1960s ’till the 1980s, full of forty somethings presumably re-living their daily trip to school !
