We're not long back but would like to thank all the organisers and helpers for a great weekend and arranging for the rain to stay away until the ride out was finished. A cracking run, especially as my bike went crock on the Friday night at the first roundabout. A bit of early morning work and it was good for the trip to Devil's Bridge.

Hope to see loads of you at Shakey in July!

Great weekend again. Nice touch with first aid rider (well his bib said he was !) and extra travelling marshals. The 85 mile ride home was fun too, probably upset a few car drivers with immature antics ! Thanks to the organisers Dave, Tony and I've no idea who else , sorry.
Can't wait to see any videos and pics. Thanks Dave

Thanks to everyone who attended the 9th NW Triples Rally.

We managed to get the weather bang on yet again for the 3rd year running at Fleetwood.

Our thanks must go to George, Darren and all the staff at the rugby club for looking after us so well as always.

Over 40 bikes on both rideouts is fantastic, with no major breakdowns.

The number of bikes on display for judging was a little dissapointing, probably due to the rain shower. We still managed to get some nice surprises at the trophy giving.

My sales tactics for the raffle tickets paid off, and we managed to collect a tidy sum for the air ambulance fund. I know how impressed you all were with the quality of the prizes this year!!

If you could not make it this year you missed a good do and certainly need to come to our 10th anniversary rally next year.

I'm ashamed to say that I had to miss the rally preparing for my boy's birthday party. I'd promised him a Ninja Warrior party but it took more preparation than I'd planned on.

Was good though.

Cheers. Thumbs Up It should have been finished on Friday so that I could come to the rally and get back for the party on Sunday afternoon but seriously I underestimated the job. Ended up working all week and through the night and still finishing off when the first guests arrived. Shame 'cos the rally looked awesome and I could have done both if I'd been more organised.

Great job on the Rally. Next year he can go to Wacky warehouse and I'll make the rally. :lol:
