i just cant get excited about this rally mate it holds no appeal to me. im finding my self getting bored of the nationals in general.i am seriously thinking of getting a new hobby.
The point is that it's not 'just' a National. There's a VFM seaside rally going on in the same town as a Mersea-type campsite, few moddy type dos (but not the freakadelic car driving type), lots of busy pubs, and even fun to be had at small events going on in other towns like Sandown. Whatever sort of rally you like they are all rolled into one.
You are just about to finish one of the most fun scooters on the planet and this has to be one of the best places to show it off. (Apart from the Coast 2 Coast
Anyway, just my opinion.
As ever, a rally is what you make it and who you go with.

Have to say - if you have a remotely open mind - then you are missing out on the world's biggest scooter festival. You should do it at least once - but the weather report for this year says perhaps this isn't the one!
I've a pretty open mind fella , and done it once , never been back !!!!!!

More attendees than any other scooter event means more mods..but more of everything.
There is enough going on to suit anyones scootering taste.
BUT, it divides opinion like no other event, the Marmite rally
