The SSMCC now has its own club site too!
Go to any major show and among the entries there will always be a handfull of hand crafted Specials on display. Even one of these machines attract a crowd wherever they go.
So imagine a field filled with them. their was only one event in the UK like this and it has been going since 1988....
 | The first Specials rally was put on jointly by the Harris & Rickman owners clubs in 1989, getting their inspiration from the Albatross club of Antwerp, Belgium, held a rally for owners of specials every year. The event is intended as a chance for owners & builders of specials from all over the UK to get together every year. As it happens word spread quickly and the rally attracted visitors from as far a field as Germany, Holland, Belgium and even two regulars on Bakker framed 1500cc Suzuki's from Alto above the Arctic circle in Norway. The formula proved so successfull that the Harris & Rickman clubs eventually combined to form a club for all specials owners & builder- The Street Specials MCC |
"Unfortunately the club no longer hold an annual specials rally, but hopefully this site will act as a great way to re live the memorys of what has been and who knows maybee one day give some one the encouragment to hold such an event once more!" - K Fothergill
All is not completely lost, however as the club do hold a camping weekend for fans home home brews, for details.....
This site is also very annoying to update, while my Facebook is easy to use, so i have added a couplle of public albums to with specials and this rally to my Facebook.
