Fantastic rally with the usual excellent quality engines and other attractions.

I'm hoping to pay a visit, just hope the weather doesn't spoil the fun again:mad:!!!

Anyone else?

Good rally, good beer and good people running the rally.
With no engine running this year we will be there Saturday and up town for the road run.

Too busy working on a proper engine Nigel, been tonight grinding weld off the rear wheels, interest is not enough, you have to be dedicated to the cause, shame work gets in the way, and another thing got fed up of getting stuck last year, will let others chew on in the slippy bits.

O dear, hope nothing serious. Given the description can we assume the chains fell off?

BLACKTOP 21st July 2008 07:46 PM

buggeroff 22nd July 2008 08:54 AM

Gland packing blew out of throttle box 6 miles after leaving sunny Masham, re packed and on there way , arrived at base 4.40.
