Suffolk Jampot Rally 07



The summer of 2007 saw some of the worst floods in many years and the weather had been absolutely atrocious so we were not expecting to have an absolutely glorious weekend.  I was having serious problems with the Matchless G11 involving re-bores etc. so I took the BSA B40 to the Rally.  When we made our way to the campsite the weather was baking hot and the ground dry contrary to our expectations. The facilities were great and the setting amongst the sandy lanes and rolling Suffolk Fields was superb.

 
  The picture above shows  us setting off along the lanes on the Saturday Run.

This is the lighthouse at Southwold  it sits in amongst the houses and dominates this very pretty costal resort. Southwold was the destination of the Saturday run and was well worth the trip.

How could I not show a view of the famous Southwold Beach Huts?



Helen, myself and the B40 at the Sunday Run parking spot in Felixstow. This was after another lovely run through the Suffolk lanes in the bright sunlight dappled through the trees.  Felixstow turned out to be a very nice place indeed especially in the sunshine.


The excitement of rallying can sometimes be too much for some of the participants.


A prize winning AJS - nice isn't it?
