Some pics and a short video from last weekend’s Wales 500 based at Baskerville Hall.

The Rallymoto events are for big bikes with easy off-road sections designed to be rideable on 50/50 tyres. The rest of the route is mostly excellent b-roads.

You can hire the road book gear and run an ICO app on your mobile phone to get started with zero investment.

I’ve purchased the F2R setup with GPS based ICO’s for distance, speed and compass heading, together with handlebar mounted controls. This setup mounts to the handlebars so is easy to add and remove and also to switch to other bikes.

We rode down on the Friday afternoon and setup camp.

It was then time to sign-on, have a beer and get some food.

Baskerville Hall is an interesting place and perfect for this kind of event.

The route was approx 300kms each day.
All in all a great weekend on bikes with mates.

Cheers for that, will have a good think about doing it next year. Looks great
 
Nice one Mark, we used to use Baskerville Hall for events .... did you know it was also an old swingers haunt...so I'm told :D

They used to bus the young Welsh hotties in, on a Saturday night….as well you know
 
For those that prefer a warmer climate they do a run in Portugal..
 
Can heartily recommend - the September one was my second road book rally and will be doing the Kielder one at the end of this month - I’ve just used the Tupperware version but will be investing in a full set up over the winter as I have my eye on a couple of foreign versions

Great pic - some younger looking tossers there!

What happened to the UKGSER events and weekends, do they still run?

Went up to Kielder last weekend for another Rallymoto 500. The route had more off road/forest tracks than in Wales. Another great weekend.

Next one is the Dark Sky’s, again at Kielder, which includes a night stage. Anyone on here doing it?

We opted for a farmhouse B&B this time instead of camping.
