The Despatch Rally 2026
May 1 - May 4
A long weekend event to celebrate and honour the Despatch riders who inspired our motorcycle culture.
The Despatch Rally is a weekend event for the whole family and all walks of life. The Rally is an inclusive event and where any machine can be brought along for the ride, and that includes the old machines that were used by the Despatch Riders back in the day. Consisting of themed destinations and challenges throughout Dorset and Hampshire, rider challenges include motorcycle control and navigation skills. Points are allocated to each activity, plus to anyone dressing in military attire! Prizes are then presented at the event finale.
The Despatch Rally will return in 2026, bringing together the motorcycling community to celebrate and honour the Despatch Riders who inspired our motorcycle culture.
