This is the one rally in the year that everyone looks forward to...back in the mid 80's every rally had an attendance of 4000+ scooterists...with the IOW attracting nearer 10,000...in recent years a rally is hard pushed to get an attendance of 1000 scooterists...so the IOW is a sort of nostalgic trip back in time...with somewhere near 4000 people in attendance...the weather was brilliant...the atmosphere was brilliant...
