Moto Guzzi Ulster Rally 2025, 23-26 May

[belfastguzzi]

Already, it's year since I posted about the Ulster Rally 3, on May Spring Bank Holiday 2024. 

Yes, there was a rather unseemly gap between the first two in 2009 and 2010 and the third, fourteen years later. Well, last year's event in the Sperrins 'area of outstanding natural beauty was excellent' and I'm having another this year, same location, same long-weekend.

Andy Bogwopit has just messaged me here, so I hope he'll make it. A couple of others from England have booked, and there was a good contingent of Scottishers last year. Does anyone in Wales ride a Moto Guzzi these days?

Can't wait to see this year's pictures of the reverie! Thanks for keeping us in the loop @belfastguzzi!

I count about twenty members in Cymru, but don't see anyone very active here.

Thanks Docc, back in ye olden days there were a few Welsh riders, round and about at V11 UK events ok. Baldini was Cymru Comrade in Chief and he might still be around the forum. He's been more active here than I have, from what I saw previously. Having the Ulster Rally event just made me think about it again. There are active connections between NI and Scotland, England to a slightly lesser degree, but not so much Wales, though a few folk here go to the annual MG Red Kite Rally in Wales. On a different though possibly related note, the Moto Guzzi dealership situation in UK is ever more dire, with more dealers jumping ship, or effectively being pushed over the brink by Piaggio Guzzi. Once again we have no dealership here in NI and I don't see it ever coming back. Of course that means the vital portal connection is unplugged and no PADS, service, service record etc etc. Nevertheless, we do receive the intensely annoying glossy Guzzi adverts for buying into super-shiny Modern Guzzi Life (without a dealer and without any super-shiny aftercare).
Is the NA dealer network still in decline, I wonder, these C21 days?

Cymru Comrade in Chief @Baldini last visited about a year ago. Maybe this will bring the good man around!
