Thanks to all who helped man the control for this years rally.We had a total of 248 riders sign in at Carterton, this was over a third of all the entrants in the event and a record for us. This might be because there was only one more control to go, after us , before people finished the rally at either Chipping Sodbury or The Ace Cafe.

We also had a visit from Wally Bradshaw, the Chief Marshal,
He told us the total entry for this year was less than seven hundred,
much lower than last year.

He thought this was mostly due to the recession and the high cost of fuel.
