Nice job. Are you members of CMCA? Good rates on insurance apparently not to mention high quality months magazine as part of the membership package among other things (eg: Wanderer's mate - free camping guide, Geo Wiki etc). .

No worries, I am a member but haven't been along to any rallies yet, there are some parts of their website you can access without being a member, worth a look, just google CMCA......
