Gathering of the Clans – Portrush | Rallery

I've been to my fair share of rallies in Ireland and Northern Ireland over the years. One of my favourites is also the biggest one, and it always reminds me of a traditional English seaside rally. Gathering Of the Clans is held in the quaint seaside town of Portrush on…
