"JERRY BIRKBECK. I am sure you will all be very sad hear that Jerry lost his battle with cancer and died over the weekend. Jo tells me that he died a happy man with his family. A lovely man who will be greatly missed." Jerry brought much joy to many through his tireless involvement in the classic MG world. No where else was this more evident than all the effort he put in over the years to furthering the use and enjoyment of the MG Y Type through his involvement in the register and also through the wonderful Spring Runs he put on. Perhaps his memory can be honored going forward by renaming these in the future as The Birkbeck Spring Run? Jerry was also the scribe of bi-annular the MG Car Club Newsletter for eleven years from June 2011 to December 2021. Our deepest condolences go out to his wife Jo at this time.
