It’s a big week in the scootering world with three significant events on during the same weekend…
Firstly, it’s Big 7’s BSRA National Scooter Rally at the South of England Showground. There are still a few wristbands available for this event, but it is likely to sell out BEFORE THE WEEKEND! Especially with the excellent weather forecast.

Euro Lambretta Jamboree
One of the most eagerly awaited events on the Lambretta riders’ calendar is the Euro. It’s not so far to go for our native riders this year, but many of our readers will be making a trip of it, rather than just having a long weekend in Scotland.
If you’re heading to Ayr, ScooterLab have sponsored the event and you’ll find a commemorative place mat and special edition sticker in your goody bags. We’ve also donated one of our Coast 2 Coast screens for the raffle.
Spain to Ayr charity ride
When we were over in Benalmadena at the start of the year, we met up with Paul Baxter and a few of the expats from Los Motos Locos, a thriving community of scooterists living in Spain.
Paul and Julie Bowman are riding their Lambretta up from Spain to Ayr for the Euro, in aid of two worthy charities: Blind Veterans and the Eden Valley Hospice. The duo have reached Plymouth today and are heading to Weston. You can follow their progress on this live link. They’re currently close to reaching the halfway point of not only their trip but also their fundraising target.
Find out more about the ride and journey in ScooterNova’s blog.
British Scooter Endurance Racing
If you like a bit of fast-paced scooter action and aren’t going to either of the events above, how about visiting Whilton Mill for round one of the 2025 Scooter Endurance racing? You can’t get better scooter racing action anywhere in the country. The best part about it is that it’s completely free to spectate, and you can camp at the track.
Whilton Mill has great facilities with a nice restaurant and bar on site.
Live updates
There is no live YouTube feed from this round but there will be live Facebook posts during Saturday’s event.
Sponsored by SLUK
ScooterLab has been proud to sponsor Scooter Endurance since day one and we continue that for 2025.
Other sponsors include AME Auto, AF Rayspeed, Thanet Area Scooter Services, ScooterNova, and the Lambretta Club of Great Britain.
