Spring Rallies
“Spring has sprung, The grass is riz, I wonder where the birdies is?” - Anonymous The grass isn’t rising here yet, but we’re only a few short minutes into spring as I’m writing this and I don’t expect miracles. It has been a long old winter, with a typical Nova Scotian mix of weather including our fair share of snow. But the days are getting longer, the “birdies” are starting to sing, and the thermometers, albeit begrudgingly, are starting to reflect…
Putting the “Distance” into TSD
It's only natural that as they gain experience, rally crews will look for more of a challenge in the complexity of route instructions, the nature of the roads on the rally route and climate they compete in, and the distance they need to cover during an event. There are any number of events on this mixed-up globe of ours to choose from which will satisfy those criteria.

VBMMC 2026 Winter Table Top Rally
This is a regurgitation of a recent Facebook post on our RRDG Facebook Group page and my personal Feed. I thought it may fit here as well, so here you go. - Gary This is day 2 of the Winter Table Top Rally series from the Venture Bound Members Motoring Club. I’ve made earlier postings about this biannual challenge (and at the same time have tried to cajole people to join in the fun), but how exactly do these things work?

A new year, and a midwinter moon shines brightly
I wanted to write this before January raised its ugly head to usher in the new year but, as they say, I was overtaken by events. Here we are already a couple of days into 2026 and I'm already a few paces behind the curve. I can only hope that's not an omen of things to come. But enough: allow me on behalf of our chairperson Chris and the other founding members of the RRDG to wish you the best of health, happiness and…

Lend us a hand?
All good things must come to an end, and so it is with our 2025 Atlantic Region Motor Sports (ARMS) road rally season. For the first time in recent memory, we conducted five events on various surfaces and using both traditional and Richta/GPS scoring methods. We welcomed a number of new novice crews (all of whom performed amazingly well) and enjoyed the company and competition from a number of experienced crews possessing long motorsport histories.
The start control location for the Lost in Lunenburg #Rally on October 18 promises to be one of the most picturesque in recent memory!
Supplementary Regulations are now available for both the New Scotland Road Rally and Bluenose Rally! #rally

Double the fun in May
For those of you not familiar with our climatic challenges here on the Atlantic coast of Canada, you may find it strange we have scheduling difficulties when it comes to motorsport events in the region. A short driving season (think May to November, if we’re lucky) and a number of track, rally and other events to fit in, scattered among clubs in four separate provinces, means our summer calendar is tight.

That’s a wrap – the 2025 Midwinter Moon is in the books!
It may not have been a perfect rally day (some of us were hoping for more snow and other weather challenges) but it was clear, cold, and breezy for the 2025 ASCC Rally of the Midwinter Moon. A ton of preparation had gone into the organization of this rally, and the rallymasters had all of the i's dotted and t's crossed - well, everything within their control anyway...
