Re: Rallies 2023?
These days a lot of the traders sell mostly online or by phone / mail order. They have to decide if the cost of attending a rally is worth the extra sales. Presumably some have decided it isn't. Luckily I'm more interested in things like components and vintage stuff. There still seems to be plenty of that.
Martin Lynch is a regular trader at the McMichael rally. That and the Dunstable Downs one in Luton are within an hour's drive from north / west London. I normally try to go to those - they're very good. The Harwell rally had a good selection of traders including Rigol and Mirfield Electronics but it looks like it's cancelled again this year.
Sadly some rallies have folded over the years, for various reasons. I remember going to one in Longleat and one at the National Motorcycle Museum in Birmingham more than 30 years ago. Those rallies may be long gone but at least there are others still running this year. Something to look forward to.
