Kelso has long been a favourite rally of mine. A beautiful ride up to a historic and welcoming town, with great facilities on one of the best campsites that we use.
At 220 miles from me, it’s a good and enjoyable ride which I’ve usually done on my own. This year, a mate, Gary (who will feature heavily in this report), decided he was heading up too and, never having been before, was going to ride up with me. No problem; with both of us on maxi-scooters we should make good time.
I really should know better by now…
