Whats wrong wiv little club rallys? They can be brilliant and are certainly far more social. The only rally I can think of down that way is MAG's End of the Road Rally at the Lizzard. Sometime around late april early May I think. Haven't done it meself...yet!

Where 'bouts you lookin' at livin' dr?

I've still got contacts back 'ome ,see !!! :D

If memory serves the "wrecker b " party is on in October. At Ruan Minor, down t' Lizard,(same site as the "end o' the road").There is also a club near Falmouth who hold a rally every year.
If you are near Liskeard, the 'Pint Pullers' meet in the "Wheatsheaf",or at least they used to !! St.Austel was the home of the "scorpio" M.C.,however I have heard that they were "closed down' by a rather larger,more universal club !!
But I repeat this is hear-say.
There are lots of mcc's all over the place down there,most organise somethin' durin' the year.Get in there an' shake 'em up a bit !! :D :cool:

Sadly we don't, we live near Eastbourne in East Sussex but we like to go to Cornwall on holiday! We have friends in Boscastle.

I just went to a great event a few weeks ago, at Calstock not far from Tavistock. It's a rowing regatta (on the river) and bike show with camping, 3 pubs in crawling distance as well as beer tent on site, bands, etc etc - we all agreed it was great! Happens every year, think it was in july!

Cornwall is a nice place. :)
The only thing I didn't like was the double mini-roundabouts. They are really confusing and dangerous.

I know of a club called 'The Knights MCC'. I met a few of them earlier this year and they are a good bunch. I think they meet around the Helston area. I have a contact number of 07793 889714, so bell who ever that is!
Good luck.
On another Cornish note, if anyone is interested I own a flat in Mevagissey, that I rent out. It has it's own parking space. Check out www.edjholidays.co.uk.
The prices can be 'tweeked' a bit depending on how skint you are, if you get my drift.
