ABR Island Rally
Posted: Wed Jan 16, 2013 1:22 pm
This is a unique event taking place at Piel Island on the 1st and 2nd June.
More information to follow later, but a quick intro……
Piel Island is located in estuary just South of Barrow-In-Furness in the South Lakes. Twice a day the island is surrounded by water as the tide rises. This event will be a unique opportunity to be “stranded” on the island for the night.
ABR has permission to ride over the sands on mass to the island on this weekend only. This is a privilege and is not available under normal circumstances.
Departing the mainland at 13:30 for the crossing (one large group only), the afternoon and evening will be spent on the island and once the tide goes out on Sunday morning the bikes will depart.

Situated on the tip of the Furness Peninsula, Piel Island is a jewel that the traveller can stumble across and be won over forever, by this charming little fifty acre island. For it has a King, a Castle and a Pub, all steeped in history waiting to be discovered by you.
