After a long break due to Covid-19, the RNC held its annual rally, originally planned for 2020, on Sunday 10 July 2022 at the Lakeland Motor Museum situated just to the south of Lake Windermere in Cumbria. The museum houses an excellent collection of vintage and classic vehicles of all descriptions along with interesting displays of automobilia which awoke many motoring memories from yesteryear.

 Housed in a separate building is the Campbell Bluebird Exhibition, a tribute to the racing careers of Sir Malcolm and Donald Campbell. Featured are full sized replicas of the 1935 Bluebird car, the 1939 Bluebird boat K4 and the 1967 jet hydroplane Bluebird K7.

We were fortunate with the weather which was scorching and by lunchtime the rally site in the very pleasant rural setting of the museum grounds began to fill up with vehicles bearing some great plates.

A range of refreshments were available throughout the day at the lovely riverside Cafe Ambio adjacent to the museum offering splendid views across the water.  

 

Class awards returned this year with slightly amended criteria and members welcomed their return.

The Noel Woodall Trophy for 2022 was awarded to Kevin Jones from North Wales 

                       

Our thanks go to Pat Woodall for, once again, providing the trophy in memory of Noel. Kevin Jones has been a member since the early days of the club and we don't believe he has missed a rally since then so is a worthy recipient.

Also thanks to Dominic Chandler, our Membership Secretary, for making the arrangements with the museum and organising the day.

And finally thanks to all our members who made the journey north and enjoyed a great day out.

As for 2023 we are looking at various venues centrally located. Any announcement will be made in the club magazine and on this website.
