Dear friends of the York Rally,In this difficult and extraordinary year the York Rally team wishes you all the very best for Christmas and the New Year, and we really hope we can see many of you soon at another York Rally.As you will know, sadly the 2020 Rally was cancelled in March due to COVID-19. Thank you again for all of the messages of support in the wake of this announcement.Since then the organising committee has kept active and in regular contact, and we are in good shape to organise another Rally just as soon as conditions allow.We will make a final decision on a Rally in 2021 at our upcoming meeting and AGM in January (see below).At the moment we are cautious about raising any expectations for 2021. Even after the cancellation early this year, the Rally finances are sound but we cannot risk running anything but a 'full throttle' Rally - one which we can be confident will go ahead and one for which Rally-goers can be confident to book campsite pitches in advance. We will have to weigh up the welcome news of vaccines with the risk of ongoing restrictions.We do want to run the Rally again just as soon as possible, which is why we are leaving the final call as late as we can. The final decision about a 2021 York Rally will be made at January's meeting, and we will then let everyone know ASAP.Meeting and AGMThe next York Rally meeting, and AGM, will take place virtually on the 23rd January 2021. As ever, all are welcome to attend. If you would like to join, please message us.We will let everyone know about the meeting's decision on a 2021 Rally as soon as possible!Meanwhile we wish all Rally-goers the best of health and cycling happiness, and a very Merry Christmas.The all-volunteer York Rally Team ...

It would have been the York Rally weekend!Just a quick note to thank all of the well-wishers and contributors who have left comments on this website, on the York Rally and Friends of York Rally Facebook pages, or contacted us direct, as we come up to the dates the York Rally would have taken place, had it not been cancelled due to the coronavirus outbreak.Head over to the Friends of York Rally Facebook page in particular to join in the celebration of the Rally that could have been – you can join fellow York Rally supporters in posting old photos and recalling treasured memories for everyone to enjoy!As we spend this year’s Rally weekend at home we can certainly look forward to future events. The organising committee is active by correspondence and eager to resume planning for the next Rally.We do very much hope and expect to be back in 2021 – but until we’ve confirmation of dates for the Knavesmire, and the committee has formally decided that the COVID-19 risk has sufficiently reduced, we’d rather not make any announcements just yet.Just as soon as we have news of future events we’ll let everyone know!Meanwhile, we wish all Rally-goers the best of health and safe cycling, until we can meet again in York!The York Rally organising committee ...

We are saddened to hear of the death of Paul Hepworth, a stalwart of the Rally, and a champion for cycling in York. He dedicated huge amounts of time and energy to the York Rally over decades, for many years acting as Chairman of the CTC York Rally Committee, alongside tirelessly campaigning for cycling in York and beyond. His support for the relaunched York Rally was generous and ongoing, and he will be very much missed. Our sincere condolences to family and friends. ... See MoreSee Less

75 years on - and we're looking for badge inspiration! Did you realise that that 2020 marks 75 years since the first York Rally in 1945? That's something we'd love to commemorate in a very special badge design for the York Rally 2020 ... But without a graphic designer on the York Rally volunteer team, we always struggle with the design! Could you help? If anyone out there can come up with even a concept sketch (finished vector artwork would be a dream!) please do attach it to a comment below, or if you prefer, email to publicity@yorkrally.orgThis year, we’re also running low on badges for our supporters club, the Friends of York Rally – so we need a new (undated) design for that as well as one for the 2020 Rally.I've attached photos of our 2019 badge, Friends & 2015 badges and a selection of older CTC designs, for inspiration. We have an area of roughlly 30mm x 30mm max to work with... and ideally just three colours, four at most...All ideas, sketches, artwork gratefully received! ... See MoreSee Less
