2024 June Rallies

Our rally held at Malton & Norton RUFC was attended by 62 vans comprising 36 from Yorkshire, 6 East Midlands, 5 Chiltern and Northern Counties, 4 from Severn Valley, 3 NW Midlands, 2 Lancashire and 1 from Kent; amongst these were 20 from the motorcycle group , there was a total of 8 first timers from various groups.

The weather wasn’t too kind but on the first night we enjoyed music from our resident DJ and Chair Mark together with Bingo and, due to it being the Official Kings Birthday, a Royal themed quiz, although it didn’t go down too well, won on a tie-break with no-one getting double figures.

Friday the room was unavailable, the motorcycle group displayed their bikes to the rest of the attendees, answering questions, the people voted for their favourite bike won by John and Pat Kirby with their Goldwing.
