Government launches closed roads consultation

The government has today announced a consultation on closed road motor sport events on mainland Britain. This consultation runs for six weeks until 10 April 2014.

The MSA has therefore prepared a special document outlining:

• What is means for motor sport
• How you can play your part in achieving a change in the legislation

To view the document, please see the MSA website for more details

Please help us to make the most of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Over the weekend of Thursday 3^rd July to Monday 7^th July 2014, we are once again holding the ‘War of the Roses’ event.  Included in the weekends activities will be a TYRO on Friday evening 4^th July and an RTV and CCV event and welly throwing and bike trial on Saturday 5^th July for any ALRC member. We would love you to come and join us over this weekend.

The main event will, of course, be the ‘War of the Roses’, to be held on Sunday 6^th July and at this point we would like to invite your Club, through you, to enter a team of three vehicles and six people.  As this event includes winching it is essential that at least one vehicle in the team is fitted with a winch, indeed all three can have winches fitted if desired, but only one is essential.  Entry to this event will cost £120 per team and the entry is limited to nine teams. If your Club would like to participate it is important you get your entry returned quickly as interest is high.  The event takes approximately seven hours and is not for the work shy but at the same time it is intended to be an entertaining day out in your vehicles.

For the young at heart, Saturday evening will see the Welly Throwing and Bike Trial, weather permitting, so bring your bike or just spectate, it’s all good fun!

The campsite at Cartmel Race Course has proved to be very successful and will be used again for this year’s event. The campsite will be open from 09.00 hrs Thursday until 12 noon Monday for those wishing to have a longer break. It is a very pleasant venue next to Cartmel village centre with restaurants, cafes, pubs, bed and breakfast and shops and even a three star hotel!  The site has adequate facilities including toilets, elsan point, hot and cold running water and showers.

You are more than welcome just to come and camp with us or compete. We great to see you all there we always have a great weekend

We hope that your Club will be interested in entering a team in this unique event.
