Here’s where to find us: https://maps.google.com/?q=50.754436,-2.693951

Whether you choose to get involved with just 1 of the days or the whole weekend, here’s what to expect...
🏁
• FRIDAY - Arrival at camp (Mappercombe Farm Dorset) from 5.30pm.
🏁
• SATURDAY - Bring along any machine for an inappropriate and laid back day of activities and races set on private land. The ultimate casual day of grass roots excitement for all walks of life and any age! Bring your bike, regardless or age, model or style (doesn’t even have to be road worthy), we welcome it all! Emphasis is on fun and exclusivity!
🏁
• SUNDAY - Our much-loved wartime-themed celebration of motorcycling freedom returns. Complete the off-road gravel course, tackle the tarmac motorcycle control circuit (gymkhana), gather hidden info across Dorset following your Serviceman’s map and complete final trails and balance challenges back at HQ.
🏁
• MONDAY - A farewell morning and casual start. A ride of respect for long-term patron of Despatch Rally and dear friend Maxwell Holdstock. A fully road-based affair, open to all bikes. This ride is to give the motorcycle community to which Maxwell devoted his life, the chance for a proper send off. Please join us in lacing together Max’s last ride.
🏁
See you on the start line!
