On June 23, the annual Ladies’ Vintage Car Rally took place in the
center of Moscow. Established three years ago with the help of
Moscow Mayor Yury Luzhkov, the rally aims to celebrate “oldtimer”
cars and their female enthusiasts. Over the course of its history, the event
has attracted numerous celebrities and over 40 teams. And so again this
year, with great excitement and a stubborn will to win, no weather forecast
or cranky engine could keep the teams and their tin lizzies off the
road. The ladies started their engines near the Blue Elephant restaurant,
owned by rally founder and this year’s second-place finisher Milka
Kresoja. The team of Ludmila Len and Tatiana Elysheva took first place
in their 1937 Corde-812 while Inna Denisova and Olga Andreyeva
came in third with their 1970 Chevy Corevette.
