*Spoiler alert* - It got cancelled didn't it.
This season we were all ready and eager to get racing (with the obvious exception of Woodward which goes without saying) even if it was Darley. In fact, Darley Moor's resident expert, David Williams was very much looking forward to this event where he had a good chance of showing not one but three RAFMSA VFR750's who was the Margrave of the Moor. Even the weather was looking good!
With mass gatherings gradually getting shut down as the COVID19 threat grew, the writing was on the wall for the first meeting of 2020. In the end; by the time the date came we weren't even allowed out of our houses let alone to a race circuit.
Darley was cancelled so we had to find something to do safely in our homes. At least it would be less expensive, if we managed to stay away from eBay that is.
We didn't want to leave you without at least a few words to entertain you in this testing time. So here are a few along side some images for a bit of fun.
