Old Rallys

Post by nipper »

Just wondered how many members remember the Old Kawasaki rallys at Moor farm and the Miners club days ?

Moor farm was before my time.
Did Basford miners from 1989 to the last one in 1995.
Think we moved to Amber valley then.

It was the miners club when I started going and then moved to the rugby club.

I can't remember when we started but I have a trophy from 1988!

Maybe did 2 at miners
I do remember us cutting down a massive tree for the bonfire as it would be felled to make way for a new housing development.
A week later in the local rag was a piece saying they where keeping the treees :oops:

I was at Moor Farm for the first and think the rally really came into its own at the Miners.

One comment I always remember hearing at the Miners was from a Welsh bloke with an H1B. I said "Great venue, isn't it?" and he replied (and imagine it in a Welsh accent) "Oh it's OK, but there's nowhere to have a shit"...

Where was Rick's Bingo - at that one-off pub venue?

I won a chain lube at one bingo. It made great napalm that evening! Those were the days when we were trusted to play with fire
