10. On Dispersal
If returning to Richmond after the ride please avoid using routes coming in from the east, i.e. via Skeeby Village.
We would like to remind all riders when leaving Richmond to be aware that the Richmondshire area is always busy on a Sunday with visitors and other road users. Please think about the manner in which you ride and do not be tempted to ride beyond your capabilities.
Enjoy the day but share the road.
A Final Word of Caution!
It is likely that temporary speed cameras will be setup in the surrounding area. Most of the local roads have clearly displayed speed limits. Dont spoil your day by getting a ticket either on your way to the Rally or on the way home.
That's all the new information we have at this time. Further Information Updates will be published in due course.
