Well done to the Beds club for organising the rally. I had a brillant time there with my engine, looking forward to next year.

For me, I thought that the site was far to spread out and required so much walking to get anywhere.

LOL

My family and I had a fabulous time - albeit without engine. A massive thank you to Paul, Lin, Mark and Sarah and their team of merry guys and gals for all their hard work, organisation and hospitality.
Roll on next year!!!
