The Bridge Returns To The East End

At The Bridge VI, which was held on Saturday, September 17, over 330 remarkable automobiles glistened under blue skies at one of the nation’s most exclusive motorcar events.

Collectors and enthusiasts meandered through the former racing grounds taking in the sights, drink in hand. The biggest automotive showing to date for the event, vehicles lined the greens, set against the picturesque backdrop of the Peconic Bay. Beautiful scenery and beautiful cars aligned for a magical afternoon.

The invite-only afternoon hosted an exquisite collection of the world’s most coveted and rarely seen cars, alongside new premieres and recent debuts from top manufacturers. Set on the fairways of The Bridge, the golf club built on the site of the former Bridgehampton Race Circuit, The Bridge rekindles the Hamptons’ historic connection to racing.

For its fifth consecutive year as presenting sponsor, Richard Mille showcased some of its most exceptional timepieces, notably, the new limited-edition RM UP-01 Ferrari, the first watch born of Richard Mille’s partnership with the automaker.

The Bridge is a collaboration between Robert Rubin, who has owned the Bridgehampton Race Circuit since 1981 and founded The Bridge golf club in 2002, and the event’s organizers: Shamin Abas, President of Shamin Abas Ultra-Luxury Communications, Brand Marketing & Business Development; and Jeffrey Einhorn, a Manhattan-based attorney and enthusiast.

Said Rubin of the day, “In our sixth year, we are proud to say; it just keeps getting better! It takes an extraordinary team to make this magical day happen and for each dedicated team member I am grateful. I am certain that this year’s guests were thrilled with the out-of-this-world vehicle lineup alongside the luxurious touches each partner brought to enhance the experience.”
