Is anyone else daft enough to be heading to Wales next weekend for the Dragon Rally?

There is a certain resident here with a carrot for a nose that goes most years, I expect he'll be along shortly. Careful you don't get an invite to the Elphant rally  :bug_eye

That's very decent of you and if it weren't for my commitments I'd have been tempted.

I did go as it happens and a great one it was too, we were blessed with amazing weather, it was to be honest a piece of pish,
I gave the Elephant a miss this year but was under canvas at the Tauerntreffen rally in Austria with the usual amount of snow and minus temps  :thumbsup the Tiger behaved impeccably, I love this bike so much  :love10 :icon_mrgreen:

I had a good time at the Dragon,cold dry weather this time unlike last years deluge.It was nice to be back at the old Waterworks site,a traditional Dragon venue from years gone by.My 2 1/2 year old Motobatt battery failed on the Friday but a mate was riding a none charging Suzuki and he was carrying a spare battery,so a few swaps as I charged them up and he ran then down saw us sorted for the weekend.

Did the Dragon in 1974 on a brand new CB750 and now my idea of camping is a 3 star hotel.
