Last weekend there were two club crews out competing on the 2026 Jim Clark Reivers rally. 😎

Well, I'm glad to report the both crews finished the event!

Stephen Petch and Michael Wilkinson finished in 10th place and Simon Jennings and Greg Bates (Spadeadam Motor Club) finished in 45th place overall.

Thank you to DAT Motorsport Photography for the images taken on this 'flat out' crest. I can say from experience that you have to be very brave on this one, blind approach to it and flat in 6th over the top! 💩

I also should mention that club member Daivd Frizelle had a mega weekend when he marshaled on the Friday leg of the Jim Clark Rally, then traveled to see the Boro play on Saturday....and then reappeared to marshal on the Jim Clark Reivers rally on Sunday! Thank you David! 🤩
