Introduction
As you are probably aware the 2005 Rally is the first one to be held within the confines of the new 10mph speed limit, heralding a change towards slower launches, river craft and Thames boats.

Never-the-less, due to the unrivalled location and the beauty of the lake we still hope to see many old friends.

This years rally reverts to its usual three day itinerary, but with more time to soak up the atmosphere and cruise the lake.

Naturally we do not expect the numbers of last year, so we envisage the event to be contained within the clubhouse.

With your support we hope to make the 2005 BCMBR just as special and enjoyable, but in a more relaxed manner.

See you there!
