There's nothing difficult about finding the Mt Glorious road, except perhaps the fact that some people refer to it as the Mt Nebo road. That's understandable, because Mt Nebo is on the way, but to get the full value of the road you really want to go at least as far as Mt Glorious, or even further to the end of the road at Wivenhoe Dam.There's nothing difficult about finding the Mt Glorious road, except perhaps the fact that some people refer to it as the Mt Nebo road.

I am in awe at the old car. Nice one

This is JC Percy, publisher of The Irish Wheelman up until the middle of 1903. He joined forces with his rival RJ Mecredy (The father of Irish Motoring) in June 1903 and they concentrated on Mecredy's publications, The Motor News and The Irish Cyclist. Percy was a founder member of the Motor Cycle Union of Ireland and of the Irish Aero Club. He was given the rank of Lieut. in the First World War RNVR and was in charge of naval recruiting. I believe the front seat passenger is WF 'Bill' Peare of Waterford.

Bob Montgomery Brilliant to have confirmation of the Naval position, thank you! Don't suppose you have any idea of a location for this one?

Given that WF Peare is the front seat passenger and that it is part of the Poole Collection there is a good chance that is Waterford - possibly the grounds of Peare's home? I'm in touch with Bill Peare's descendants in Chicago at the moment and they may be able to throw some light on the location.

Possibly in the grounds of teh People's Park in Waterford only a couple of hundred metres from Bill Peare's garage.
