The UK National Road Rally on a Zero Anyone?
« on: January 06, 2016, 02:19:30 PM »

My local bike club held a talk given by the Auto-Cycle Union last night.  These are the folks who organised the first Isle of Man TT and have been organising motorcycle sporting events since 1903.

Each year they hold the National Road Rally, the first one was held in 1933. This year's event will be on July 2nd-3rd. It starts at 12pm on the Saturday and ends at 10am on the Sunday. You can choose how many miles you want to ride and how many checkpoints you visit.

I don't know if anyone has done it on an electric motorcycle before, but it would be fun to get a few of us together and give it a go.  With the right planning, I reckon we could make a go of it.  Fast charging will be a must though. The Diginow charger being the only practical option I can think of to make the rally worth considering. Power tanks too, ideally.

Does this event appeal to anyone?

It would be a great first for electric motorcycling - one for the history books!
