who would be interested in reviving the canvastown rally at a less muddy time of year? like february?

The camp has new owners and they are openminded and very keen to host something like this.

how the hell do you go about organising a rally, is it worth it? I'm keen as who wants to help?, anyone with experience?

dont worry, the VCR is safe, youre right though, you gotta catch the weather, and the riders, so it has to be timed just right to fit around race meets, other rallys, and holiday weekends

thats cool, how it should be, but I dont want to steal your thunder ( I cant afford to travel far at the moment, so didnt even consider coming) but it would be good to see some more annual events in the top of the south (maybe we could revive the hawksbury circuit)
