Following are the photos of the Ceylon Classic Motorcycle Club (CCMC) 2nd Fun Rally "KALUTARA RUN 2020" from Colombo to Kalutara held on 15th March 2020.

The rally featured a rare and formidable lineup of sidecar outfits, including a BSA 500cc Vintage Sidecar motorcycle, two BSA Golden Flash 650cc Sidecars, and a Triumph Speed Twin 500cc Sidecar motorcycle. In addition, solitary classic powerhouses such as the BSA Golden Flash 650cc, Triumph Thunderbird 650cc, and the wartime Norton 16H were among the standout attractions that turned heads all along the coastal highway corridor.

Riders converged from across the island to participate in this grand fellowship, with several dedicated enthusiasts riding in from Marawila, Ratnapura, Ambalagoda, and Kurunegala to join the Colombo contingent.

This was our historic first rally where the club gathered over 15 classic motorcycles above 500cc engine capacity in a single rolling formation.

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all our members, marshals, and well-wishers who helped make this landmark event a resounding success.

“We would like to thank our members and everyone who helped us make this event a resounding success.”
