Plans are in place to establish a brand new scooter rally in a town.

Rossendale 60's Festival organisers have decided to hold a new scooter event called the Rossendale Valley.

A scooter event is already run in Rossendale as part of the Rossendale 60’s Festival but the organisers have recognised that there is massive potential in holding a separate event that will be a weekender,

The event will be held at Marl Pits Sports Complex in Rawtenstal. These will include a fully licensed club house, toilet and showering facilities, swimming pool and gym.

The event is planned to start on Friday evening and run through until Sunday with a Ride Out through the beautiful Rossendale Valley and on to Hollingworth Lake on Saturday.

The ‘Rally In The Valley’will run from June 8 to June 10, 2018.
