Well because of the dreaded C19 thing this was the first rally since 2019, in 2020 we should have been there to leave for our Russia trip, how the world has changed! The Rally was in the Falkirk Rugby and a good place for a Motorcycle rally, the only Guzzi dealer in Scotland is in Falkirk and the staff at Jim Allens motorcycles done us proud by having an open day on the Saturday complete with free grub for the Guzzi crowd, a generous gesture indeed.
The rally was great as usual and it was good to meet many of our friends we hadn't seen for a couple of year, the Guzzi crowd are a friendly crowd indeed. Fi and I went for a run to our old haunt at South Queensferry on Sunday which was nice (where we got married) and over the 3 nights a great time was had by all. We stayed in a Hotel nearby for the first time ever due to medical reasons but hopefully soon I'll be back to camping.
The pictures tell the story...
