CCC National Rally 8-10 July 2016

Post by Philip Chidlow »

CCC NATIONAL RALLY - 8-10th July 2016
This is being carefully planned to have added ‘appeal’ like a larger ‘Chevrons Rally’ plus. Details will be forthcoming...
Keep those dates free please; Let's Make It A Success! :)

Venue: Abbots Ripton Village Hall, near Huntingdon
(Yes, we are aware it’s still in a similar area to previous rallies; but limited time to source, availability, suitability and cost were all factors - 2017 will see a big change in that ;) )

Looking forward to it!

Some people will moan, but then again you cant please them all.

If we can get the same buzz as the chevrons then it will be awesome!

I'll make a go of this, if I've got the AX or BX TRS on the road by then, not to mention my Dad's GT.

Better get off the internet, really then!

I am getting married 10 miles from there in Ellington on the 9th of July.

Keep your eye out for an XM with ribbons and bows on. If you see it, it means that I've got my way on at least one thing!!!

I think there's probably plenty of time, Tim. And if not, at least you've got some other Citroens to choose from...

This could well be another family outing as my daughter enjoyed taking her DS3 to the chevrons rally so much so she has already put this date in her diary .

Can DS's still go to a Citroen Rally now they have split from Citroen? :wink: No Chevrons on the latest batch. :(

I applaud the principle of inclusivity, Tim, but I do wonder why you would follow a marque you don't own and run? Can you imagine the confusion caused by someone tipping up regularly with a BX at Mercedes-Benz Owners Club meetings?
