Dont break them then lol

we will try our best not to. Ten years in the making wouldnt want to fall at the first hurdle. It is still a learning curve trying to steam them at the moment

lol

Blue engine ? Red Engine? wat are these engines pete

who else is going 2 this rally

I'll be there with bells on (not literally)!

The only Sentinel listed on the website is Harold Bell's 'Super'. Is this reet? There's usually quite a few is there not? Here's hoping!

Paul

But how much is the admission?

Info in OG is differant to what is advertised locally. Personnally I don't think £10.00 is out of the way for a rally the size of Pickering, just wish we had consistancy, people will read one price, travel and then find they have more to pay. This can show the rally movement in a bad light.

If past couple of years is anything to go by. Save a couple of quid and bring last years program. He rarely changes it.

wonder who'll be on the march to find the organiser this year......

i think it is £10 it says that on website

Says £8.00 in OG

Take OG with you & show it at the gate.

Just go to Pickering on Sat eve, a lot cheaper, better chips and you will see most of the engines, well the engines that arnt affraid to go on the road.

Chris.

the road runs good but i normally stay on site watching the engine, the friday road run is also good and have been on that many times before

I am in the area that weekend, do some engines run into Pickering town on Saturday night then?

The engine dissapear for a bit into town on both friday and saturday evenings. It is quite a sight and well worth walking into town if you get the chance.
