Conrad Birch
Company Director
A property investor and keen rally enthusiast, Conrad organised his first rally in 1999, the never-to-be-forgotten 1st Jewel of India Classic Car Rally. Since then he has run ten rallies for classic cas and bikes. For Conrad, running rallies is a much loved pastime, never a business. In 2008 he drove his MG B from London to India and then onto Japan for a summer of driving the great unknown mountainous interior. In 2010 he drove his Alfa Romeo Duetto on ROARR's Patagonia Classic Car Rally and last year ROARR's biggest challenge to date - the Great Game Classic Car Rally, 50 days from Istanbul to Calcutta. He is now exploring northern India in preparation for Classic India 2013.
