Taff Riders Rally

Outside Cowbridge
(I think, I have slept since then)

I went on my new HONDA 900f with my wife Janet on the pillion.

The only thing I remember about it was that in the beer tent, after quite a lot of beer, two young lads took exception to the hat I was wearing. They said it looked like the sort of thing a skinhead would wear (my hair WAS short then) so I couldn't possibly be a biker and should leave. They changed their minds when I held open my Belstaff to show my waistcoat with the amount of rally badges on it. So it was "sorry mate" and sheepishly walk away.

The Black Russian's rally waistcoat - couldn't possibly be a biker...

I can't believe I found this page. I was there!

I didn't even have a bike. I turned up with two mates in a black Ford Capri mk11 with a wing missing. We did donuts in the field where the bikes came in.

Engine played that night - fond memories.
