Warming up for the 1000 Miglia.
Last time we heard from Joe Hurwich was when he returned from the 2021 Mille Miglia and the Gran Premio Nuvolari in Italy where he drove his superb Aston Martin. Last month, he caught the Mille Miglia event right here in the good ol’ U.S., where the organizers set up a Mille Miglia warm up event in Northern Virginia. They figure if you and your car can do 500 miles here, doing the 1000 miles in Italy is feasible. Joe took from his stable a more comfortable car this time, and Alfa to boot. -Ed.

In October 2022, I shipped my 1954 Alfa Romeo 1900 CSS to my cousins’ house in Bethesda, Maryland and then drove the 50 miles to the start of the 1000 Miglia Warm Up in Middleburg, VA on October 18th.
