We have been asked to run a Selectif on the
Huntsman Enduro Rally

Selectif is near Coalville, so very much on the doorstep. We will need at least
25 people, for Start / Finish and to mark Course Penalties. Please ask friends,
relatives or any other responsible people. Signing on is at 14:15 128-393/192 ,

Rugby MC have again asked us to help on the
Mallory Park Stages on the Rally of the Midlands on June 19/20. There are 6
Stages at Mallory, in pairs. One visit on Friday evening and 2 visits on
Saturday. I don’t have full details from Rugby yet, but I understand
Duncan Lord is Stage Commander. Since Rugby will be helping us on the Huntsman,
we need to get as big a team as possible out on both events.
