Lovely lot of trakshun engines enjoying the sun! Actually I went in and bought a shandy just to show there were no hard feelings.
|
We have had a fantastic 4 days here and thanks go to all the staff and the events co-ordinator Michael Stokes, for making us all welcome. Weather was a bit murky but there were still plenty of visitors to the show, even more when the sun came out Sunday and Monday.
|
I just wanted to add my thanks to Michael and all those involved in organising a friendly and very enjoyable event. It was my first rally with my roller 'Rosetta' and lets just say the bar has been set very high. great job.
|
Lovely to see the pics of what was clearly a lovely weekend and a great rally. Really must get over one year - it looks fab. Well done to all involved :)
