The Rally Site







The venue is a market area based around one long street and this provided the ideal set up for the event - shops in the old Spanish style, which were used by the various dealerships, food and other vendors. There is considerable organisation required to receive so many people and bikes and there was a police presence around, although very much integrated with the rally and including one on a police Harley!


With ticket checked, your bike and you are banded and if the numbers don't match, the security folk wont let you out! It gave some assurance about security and there will easily have been over £100m of bike value there at the peak.

There were two stages for the live entertainment, different themed food stalls and a number of open areas where you could sit and enjoy a drink. There was flamenco, good quality live bands and plenty to entertain, including the stunt show from Craig Jones...............
