Club Bultaco Australia – Spanish Motorcycle Rally 2012
The 14th annual rally will be held on the 23rd, 24th & 25th November 2012, and is open to all Spanish motorcycles so start polishing up those Bultaco’s , Montesa’s, and Ossa’s and come along for a friendly family oriented event at the 1500 acre “”Rivervale “ property, on the Shoalhaven river, NSW.
Entry to the rally is free but a ride fee of $20 per rider applies, to be paid to the property owners. Most entrants turn up on Friday to make it a long weekend. Everything is BYO, there are unlimited camping sites in the main paddock, a bush loo, and washing/ swimming is in the river. Fishing too if you want to throw in a line.
There is no racing or trophies, just friendly trail rides or for the more adventurous there are sand motocross tracks, an enduro loop and easy sections for trials bikes. There will even be a ride to the local pub if enough road registered bikes turn up. A gymkhana will be held on Sunday morning featuring the ever popular drag race, ride-the-plank, slow race and slalom. At night sit around the campfire and tell a few yarns washed down by your favourite brew with other Spanish motorcycle enthusiasts.
Directions to the rally.
Travelling from the south:
On the Kings Highway between Braidwood and Canberra,
15klms after Braidwood turn right onto Larberts Road, Larbert.
Travelling from the north:
Turn off the Hume Highway at Goulburn to Tarago, and left onto the Kings Hwy to Braidwood.

Drive along Larberts Road for 6km, cross a small concrete floodway on a creek (usually dry), the road changes to dirt, across the cattle grid gate, drive another 1km past the sand pits & turn right into the "Rivervale" homestead - you are there!
