As posted on the Facebook group. I’m hoping Jamie Walter will see it here, as he might have the answer.

**Any old folk remember 2004?** Where was this (June 2004) rally location? It was one of the annual V11UK (and Buell) rallies organised by Chris Jessop. The location was somewhere in England (and I came home by Baldini’s gaff in Wales). Unfortunately my original photos from this period were lost, but I recovered the small images in the linked album, from somewhere.
I’m tweaking a list of previous rallies on the website I have for Moto Guzzi Ulster Rallies \> [https://belfastguzzi.com/other-beginnings/](https://belfastguzzi.com/other-beginnings/) The events listed are, for me, relevant to the [Ulster Rally](https://belfastguzzi.com) idea. If anyone has interesting info I might add, I’d be pleased to receive it.

Query answered, I found a note in the very last pile of old papers I searched through:
The Vernon Arms, Bromsgrove, West Midlands. 18-20 June 2004.
Names on the note: Mal, V11UK (Chris), Baldini, Philmac, Amazon, John O’Sullivan, Ferguzzi.

Blimey, that brings back some happy memories!
Just checked to see if my old green V11 still exists and it’s on SORN with the last MOT expiring 22-07-12.

Was that when we met a Spean Bridge?

Spean Bridge was another event. I’ll dig through my archives and see if I can come up with the details.

I have Spean Bridge in my short list (of events relevant to my Guzzi ownership) as 2005 and 2006 \> [Other Beginnings – MOTO GUZZIs NI](https://belfastguzzi.com/other-beginnings/) . I will be interested in info / photos that surface.

I’ve checked, and I haven’t any images for the Spean Bridge event(s)….
