Hello,

I have been asked to be Deputy Stage Commander for Mark Williams on the Swift Signs & Shirts Yorkshire Dales Rally, Sunday 29th March.

Some of you may have already volunteered for the event and if that is the case – thank you.

If you are available and willing to help with Stage 4+8 (Name still tbc) then please volunteer via Rally Stage Team (RSGT) or if you don’t use RST please email me and Mark – copied to the email.

At present I don’t have signing-on times. Details will be sent asap (or after the Riponian as Mark is Chief Marshal and I am SC on the event).

I look forward to seeing you soon.

Regards,
Elizabeth Klinkenberg

Mlcolm Wilson Rally – 7 March 2026

From John Newlove:

The Malcolm Wilson Rally is requesting your help and support – they are short of volunteers-

Saturday 7th March 2026 sees the 49th year for the Malcolm Wilson Rally organised by Kirkby Lonsdale Motor Club Ltd, Morecambe Car Club Ltd, West Cumbria Motorsport Club Ltd & Eden Valley Motor Club Ltd. The event is also the first round of the 2026 Protyre Autocare BTRDA Rally

The event will use both Greystoke and Grizedale Forests including the new Grizedale East stage for 2026. Rally HQ will again be at M-Sport, Cockermouth with the Ceremonial start in Cockermouth with service being at Penrith Auction Mart.

Following the Ceremonial start, the crews will travel to Greystoke for Stage1 followed by a service and then onto Grizedale Forest to undertake Grizedale North, Grizedale East which will run twice at 30 second starts before undertaking Grizedale South before returning to service. The final stage of the day will be a return to Greystoke Forest with the finish and presentations at Penrith Auction Mart.

The Chief Marshal for the event is Ian Swallow, and his deputy is Karen Spencer. Please contact them via chiefmarshalblmcc@gmail.com and karens@silkrallyradio.com respectively if you have any queries. We require Radio, Timing and In-Stage marshals, without whom the event simply cannot run.
