The
Wallace
is held every year over the Spring Bank Holiday. It will
be the 12th rally in 2003.
It's held at Stirling County Rugby Club, which is overlooked
by both Stirling Castle and The Wallace Monument. In short
it's a brilliant site for a rally, bars, good grub, showers
and toilets. There's all of a 10 minute walk into the city
for cafes, pubs, restaurants, bars, takeaways, alehouses,
sightseeing, inns etc. . Once out of the city there's some
great biking roads and places to visit (distilleries always
appeal to me), you could go on the traditional Rally rideout
though this may resemble qualifying for the 500 GP depending
on the 'road captain'.
Cally members take the silly games quite seriously. Any
suspicion of not cheating is dealt with quite harshly.
Remember the referees decision is final and that he can
usually be bribed with a ½ pint shandy. The North
West have been known to enter the games but they stopped
as people thought their club name was actually 'the North
West Last'.
