All roads lead to Mersea, well, just one does really, and if you haven’t got a ticket, you won’t be riding across that causeway this year.
If you were part of the scrum for Mersea Island tickets on Sunday evening and missed out, don’t despair. Here’s a chance for you to win a pair.
Gone in minutes!
All 2000 tickets for Mersea Island Scooter Rally sold out in just 50 minutes! The success of this long-standing rally is a testament to the organisers, who have kept it fresh and run it continuously since 1993.*
In September, Mersea will be held for the 32nd time if my maths are correct.
*Except 2020 due to COVID.
If you’ve not got a ticket but want to be stood in that courtyard chewing the fat with your mates, read on…
Win a pair
Luckily for you lot, we’ve had a word with the organisers at Colchester District Vespa & Lambretta Club, and they’ve agreed to let us have a pair of Mersea Island tickets to give away in this competition.
How to enter
We’re not going to make this too difficult, but if you were at Mersea in the early days, you’ll have an advantage.
Question time
During a Mersea Island rally in the late 1990s, we woke on Sunday morning to the very sad news that an English Rose had been killed in a tragic ‘accident’. What year was it, and who was the famous face?
