Seven Bugattis en route to California stop in Libby

ABOVE: Karel Van de Velde, a Belgian who lives in Switzerland, prepares to back his Bugatti Type 43 into Mineral Avenue in Libby Monday. He was among a group of international drivers in seven Bugattis from Saratoga Springs, New York — where they attended the American Bugatti Club’s 2018 International Bugatti Rally — to San Francisco. They left the rally Sept. 11 and are due in San Francisco Oct. 10. The other drivers and passengers hailed from New Zealand, England, France, the Netherlands, Australia and Colorado.
