4th Grampian Rally 23rd to 28th May 2008

Templars, Maryculter, Aberdeen, Scotland. The 4th Grampian Rally will take place on 23rd May -28th May 2008 inclusive.

Our routes will allow riders to traverse parts of The Victorian Heritage Trail, The Coastal Trail, and Scotland's Castle Trail with an experienced local rider leading each daily group.
