Competitor Info
We are pleased to be able to announce that Riponian 2024 will be happening on Sunday 11th February and plans are well in hand to provide another cracking day in the Yorkshire Forests. The format will be similar to that of 2022 but with some minor changes in some of the stages, with a section in one of the forests that hasn't been used for several years.
​
We are grateful for the continued support of KT Green again this year.

Event Winners
From the first Riponian Rally, held as a road rally event in November 1969, the present-day event has evolved into a 45 mile stage rally event, using forest roads linked by closed roads. The winners of the 50th event were Matt Edwards and John Millington in Pete Smith's M-Sport Ford Fiesta R5+
Rally Stats
Over the 50 years the event has run, the Club has had to cancel the rally five times, twice because of extreme weather conditions (in 1996 and 2020) and three times due to extreme circumstances, first the fuel crisis of 1974, then losing the venue in 2018 and finally the coronavirus pandemic in 2021.
