2018 Riponian Rally - NOT GOING AHEADPosted: November 29, 2017 2:18 PM - 2992 Hits Riponian Rally - 18 Feb 18 2018 Riponian Rally - NOT GOING AHEADPosted: November 29, 2017 2:18 PM "It is with deep regret that the organising team of the Riponian Rally have to announce the rally will not be running in 2018. In late August, part way through the planning process the team learnt that the forests around Helmsley which have been part of the event for the past 20 years were no longer available. This meant the team not only had to find new stages, not originally part of the forest allocation, but it also meant the traditional scrutineering, service area & finish venue of Thirsk Auction Mart would not viable due to the excess road mileage involved, further complicating matters. Being unable to fully resolve these issues and a very short timescale left to complete all the new safety requirements and have them approved, combined with a large potential financial risk, the team took the decision to not run the event and regroup early in 2018 to begin planning for 2019 which would be 50 years since the first ever Riponian"
