| 5th Grampian Rally (28 May - 2 June) | |
The 5th Grampian Rally will be held on Friday 28th May to Wednesday 2nd June 2010 inclusive at the now traditional Templars site near Maryculter.
This popular event will follow the tried and tested format of daily runs with approximate distances of 20, 40 and 60 miles followed by nightly social activities culminating in a traditional Scottish Ceilidh and buffet on the last night. The routes will allow riders to traverse parts of The Victorian Heritage Trail, The Coastal Trail, and Scotland's Castle Trail with an experienced local rider leading each daily group. With ample time for coffee stops and photographs the 2010 Rally looks set to be as successful and enjoyable as those in previous years.
