We went last month. Loved it. If I were a richer man I'd definitely get that electric one for my commute :¬)

Many thanks Dave and all who helped make this Annual rally truly a great one. Perfect weather great food, music and beer.

The Friday visiting the Morgan factory was very enjoyable with a ride afterwards back to Pershore.
On Saturday I was keen to take in some of the Friday morning routes as I was well tired after Fridays riding and a late night.
The views along the Malvern Hills were lovely.

I wasn't the only thing tired that day. My wiring was also getting fatigued and caught fire. :oops: turning off the ignition cooled things down so with just one mile from the camp site I used my AA batteries to get me back to my tent.

Problems like this at an Ariel rally are good news, plenty of help and advise. So we found some wire and screw connectors and patched in some replacement wire. Somehow though whilst fixing my electrics I managed to get my throttle cable stuck in my steering and killed it!!!
Hermon though had a replacement inner, Alan had an outer. Arie had a small blow tourch and I had some flux with solder. After an hour or so and a few beers we had it all back together.

The Saturday night band was fantasic, all had a great time :D
