11. The Mudlark

November ends with the Zelly Cup Rally. The formula is similar to our other rallies and usually starts around 8 p.m. with the first man home by midnight, sometimes depending on the length of the route all have finished (or should have) by midnight.

Last December saw the revival of an old event, The Mudlark. The main idea being an informal event with no time schedules, rather it is in the nature of a conducted tour of a few local trials hills with a small competition included. For the newcomer this is a wonderful] chance to have some practice before entering in a trial.

The cups listed in this summary of fixtures are by no means all we have, because we have 3 cups which are won on a points basis over the year, the year for these cups being Dinner to Dinner.

Everyone who is connected with any event either as a competitor, organiser, navigator or marshal is allocated a number of points, and committee man Ted Dives keeps a log of all these points. These Cups are as follows :

The Clubman Cup presented by Mr. H. Crowe goes to the most consistent member who has not won an award in the year.
