Yep, it won't be long until tickets are out for 2017 Dragon Rally. I believe, you can apply for tickets at start of October. So who is up for it?

No idea as yet if I'm working but I'd best get a ticket I suppose 'just in case'.

I'll also be there and will also be attending the Bruce Pollard rally at the Giler Arms on the Friday night with a few friends, it'd be great if a few more turned up for it as it is a great little rally you get a nice Bruce Pollard badge and all for a good cause, also you get a few foreigners there which are a good laugh. Forget the bunk houses and see you there.  ;)

Hi Mark

Would you tell me more please as I've never heard of the Bruce Pollard Rally, or Bruce Pollard for that matter.

The rally is held on the Friday night at The Giler Arms http://www.giler.co.uk/ prior to the Dragon Rally, it is in remembrance of a popular man who was a member of this club as well as others, I have added a link of his story.

I'm planning to stay at Conway YHA on the Sunday night, so I can get 9am ferry back to Dublin on Monday morning, and ride home in daylight. They have four bed dorms, £15 pppn for non members, and £12 pppn for YHA members. OK, the real reason, is that CAMRA North Wales pub of the year, the Albion, is just down the street  ;)

Food for thought.  :) That is a great pub Tim, you will love it, but I see you missing your ferry, one of my favourites and dog friendly too.
