This event IS NOW CANCELLED

Grimsthorpe Gallop is our 6th instalment of SBR Events 10/10 series. If you raced and enjoyed either of Thoresby10 or Rockingham10 you’ll love this trail run!

Set in the beautiful grounds of Grimsthorpe Castle,in the delightfully charming Lincolnshire countryside just 10mins off the A1. This event makes for a perfect summer race, whether you take on the family friendly 5k or go for the longer challenge of 13.1 miles.

The 4 routes take you past various delights within the private grounds including the castle, lake, tree lined tarmac avenues, ancient woodland along grassed paths and a victorian railway culvet. The train line no longer exists, but the 10 and 13.1 mile routes travel along this section and take you to a part of the world generally unseen by the public.

Like our other 10/10 races we hope you’ll come as a family and take the opportunity to enter the ‘little legs’ into the 5k race. A simple, not too challenging distance that we invite ages of 4+ along to. Plus ALL finishers receive a bespoke race medal!

Come and hear some sublime music in the glorious setting of the Vanbrugh Hall at Grimsthorpe. Why not arrive early and visit the gardens and grounds? You might even consider bringing a pre-concert picnic! The castle gates will be open from 6 pm that evening.

This is part of the message issued by the organisers of the show.

Looking to the future, it has become increasingly apparent that to continue to deliver our event to the same high standards and expectations, with the quality of exhibits and the breadth of appeal we have achieved over the years, we will need more time and resource than is currently available to us. It is therefore, with great sadness, that we have to announce the 2020 Baston Car & Bike Show will not take place. This has been a very difficult decision and it has not been taken lightly.  We understand that this will be a big disappointment to many people – it definitely is for us – but we all felt that this decision will ensure the best possible show for everyone. We would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to everyone who has helped make our show what it is, including the numerous visitors, the many and varied car and bike enthusiasts, clubs and groups and all the local volunteers. We’d also like to sincerely thank Grimsthorpe Castle for their involvement and support.

The positive news is that there will be a 2021 Baston Car & Bike Show, which will be our 10th anniversary event. It will take place on Sunday 4th July 2021 at Grimsthorpe Castle and as it is taking place on American Independence Day, we plan on having an American theme.  We will start to plan the 2021 show in the coming weeks and we will be actively engaging with all the car and bike clubs, the dealerships and trade stands, caterers and entertainment suppliers over the coming months to ensure our 10^th anniversary show will be one to remember.

If you have any questions, or would like to get involved in our 2021 show please get in touch via contact@bastoncarshow.com
