The unofficial Isle of Wight Rally went ahead without official blessing over the weekend.The authorities used the Police to ban any bar or pub in Ryde from putting on any any musical entertainment .This was done in a last minute panic on wednesday night before the bank holiday on Friday.Other parts of the island were free to go ahead as normal .The vast majority of the visitors appeared to be obeying the social distancing rules.The weather was very kind to us,as usual, and we visited all the usual haunts during the day.Ryde Castle staff really looked after us with evening meals.Lets hope all is back to normal for 2021. Scooter numbers are only guess work but there would have been over 300 on the Green on saturday afternoon with probably an equal number out and about at the same time.An unofficial ride out went ahead at one o'clock on Sunday with lots of spectators on the hill out of Ryde,probably taking five minutes to pass.I.O.W. just made for Scooters!
