Join Watsonian sidecars at Stoneleigh Park (formerly the National Agricultural Centre) for a rally to celebrate their 100th birthday.
Founded by TF Watson in 1912, Watsonian has survived two world wars, economic boom and bust and a devastating factory fire. Today the company still makes Great British sidecars in the Heart of England, exporting across the globe. Ironically, Japan is their biggest overseas market and Corofi, Watsonian's Japanese distributor, will be riding a couple of outfits to the rally.
Attractions at the Centenary Rally include a display of historic sidecars along with the company archives, driving skills test, prizes for Best in Show, celebrity guests, trade stands and an opportunity to test ride Royal Enfield motorcycles, which have been distributed by Watsonian since 1999. (Please bring your license & riding gear).
On Saturday evening there will be entertainment with a live band and bar.
Tickets for the weekend cost £10 per person in advance. Camping and self catering accommodation is available on site, as is the Stoneleigh Park Lodge guest house. Book your accommodation direct with Stoneleigh Park on 02476 690123 quoting event number 10348.
