OK, sO what is this...

RaLLY ChaRitYwhY aRe we dOing it...

The primary aim of the event is to raise money for Jersey Hospice Care. Over the past five years, more than £139,000 has now been

raised for the Hospice which has enabled the charity to care for more islanders with cancer and motor neurone disease. All of the Hospice’s

services are offered free of charge and the charity relies entirely on the generosity of the public so this annual event is a vital income.

Funds are also raised for the UK charity Focus12 which receives some of your entry fee for organising the event. Chip Somers, our fabulous clue master and organiser is the Chief Executive of the independent

charity based in Suffolk which provides drug and alcohol rehabilitation through both residential and day-care facilities. The

charity’s patrons are Davina McCall, Russell Brand and Boy George.

The galleryrally is an excuse for you and a friend to take part in a four day treasure hunt around Europe. Think of it as a cross between the gumball rally and the telgraph crossword with a bit of Blue Peter

thrown in.

We set the course and the clues and you crack them and follow them to beautiful destinations set by our cluemaster, Chip Somers. You’ll find yourself wandering through villages and chateaus in search of cryptic clues and hitting beautiful stretches of open road across France. The evenings are yours to kick back and enjoy in quirky

hotels. With 4 clues a day and roughly 60 miles between clues, each day will be no more than about 250 miles. The last night will be

something special as we end in luxury, this year on the beachfront in Biarritz.

“ Every year we have a ball. It’s a really different way to have a short break. You’ll experience some beautiful scenery as we go off the beaten track and the challenge

of the clues will help you totally switch off from everyday life.

It's hard for Jersey to shake off the Hungerford effect; the perception for outsiders

that every Jersey inhabitant still lives the 80s highlife when millionaires wore double breasted jackets, spent all day holding a champagne flute and could affort to live in more than a semi detached house.

When we first started Gallery a client told me about a car rally. It was to San Sebastian in Spain and he was heading there in his Porsche. A performance car rally across Europe, stopping in on a Guggenheim museum seemed like the thing of dreams. It was a charity event and sounded like the sort of activity reserved for old Chuckles Hungerford and his Royal Barge dwelling contemporaries (that’s The Old Courthouse to those living a life outside of Bergerac, the TV series rather than the French town).

But this wasn't ITV, this was real, for real people. It was called the 'Tour de Liberation' and was organised as a fund raiser for the Bush Hospital Foundation. I didn't find this out until 2008 when we were approached to help reshape the event after it had stalled in 2007. We proposed to use our little magazine as an outlet to promote and means to rebuild the event and raise money for a new benefactor; Jersey Hospice Care.

With a few years in Jersey under our belts and a better understanding of the Island and how it works, we saw it as a great project we could throw Gallery’s weight behind and the galleryrally was launched.

Over the last five years we’ve travelled thousands of miles and raised thousands of pounds for worthy charitable causes. We’re hoping this year will see our total for the six years reach £160,000 for Jersey Hospice Care. That’s a lot more than we’d have achieved with some boot fairs. It’s all down to passionate raillers that see the benefit in using their valuable summer holiday days to do some good.

We’ve been to the South coast of France three times, to Barcelona and through the Alps to Geneva. Each route covering spectacular countryside and breathtaking views. We’ve battled through Chip’s clues and challenges and learnt a few things along the way. We’ve also grown a small but connected Alumni of ralliers who all have fantastic shared memories.

A massive thanks to our previous years’ sponsors; Sure Mobile and Jacksons in 2008, Moore Stephens in 2009 and Peritus in 2010/11. Thanks also to the Royal Yacht and The Grand Jersey for helping us with breakfasts and rooms.

This year Chip has a new route planned, one that will fill in that big area of the above map with no Gallery Rally lines. Watch out Western France, we’re coming.

scenery; great banter with old friends; meeting new friends and the excellent challenge of the clues and

competitions.

What did you do to raise your fundraising target?

We ran our own mini-rally in Jersey in May. We set 15 clues around the North

and West of the island, culminating in afternoon tea in St Brelade’s Bay

also got sponsorship for running 10ks, half-marathons and marathons!

What adviCe Would you give to someone thinking of doing a galleryrally?Go for it! You can have a lovely driving holiday through France,

make new friends, challenge yourself intellectually (and physically!) and

raise lots of money for two very worthy causes in the process. What

could be better?

Combined age: 90!

What makes your team speCial?As relative novices we are keen to learn from the more experienced rallyers, so

what we did was got a really fast car and then followed people a lot! Seriously however, Chris and I were at school together, we know each other really

well, know what each others strengths and weaknesses are and can get along without it ending in tears (btw it was

We used our corporate contact to get sponsorship and we also have people

in the Close office doing various fundraising activities, dress downs,

sponsored slimming etc!

people, awesome food, a few cheeky drinks and a lot of laughs.

What did you do to raise your fundraising target?

Offered advertising space on the Camper Van in exchange for lots of

money!

You don’t need a super car to do it and stay an extra day at the last hotel,

you’ll need it!

THE TorToisE TriumpHs‘La viervre et la tortue’

the galleryrally 2012 saw our gallery van beat the supercars into first place. it’s our fifth year, so it’s about time. with so many hare like super-

cars on the field we went out there and got a win for the tortoises...

One of the most common questions we get asked about the rally

is ‘Don’t I need a fast car?’ This year we proved that, as much as enjoying endless straights with beautiful scenery, winding chicanes and private racetracks, it’s also fun to enjoy the rally in a vehicle with far less horsepower. And far more storage space.

The rally really snuck up on us this year. In previous years we’ve taken a Jeep. Unfortunately a local car retailer that deals in such brands had our Jeep in their posession for 4 months this year and then gave it back broken. They want £1000 more to re-fix damage caused by their neglect so, with the rally approaching, we had to look for another option. Without a stable of cars to choose from we opted for our trusty steed, the Gallery Distro delivery van. She’s been circling the Island for us for years and we must owe her a trip to the French riviera by now.

There was some concern over conditions as a force 7 had ferries running for a harbour the night before we were due to depart. Fortunately, following our send off coffee and bacon rolls courtesy of the Royal Yacht Hotel, Poseidon and Mother Nature calmed things just enough to allow Condor Rapide to power over the undulating ocean and safely to St Malo. As usual, in addition to a first hidden clue in our competitor pack, we had a challenge for a ferry. To avoid Google’s ability to answer just about every quiz question in previous years this year our organiser had a new plan; a massive word search. I’m sure it’s been a while since you had the time or inclination for a wordsearch....you’re missing out. Our 24 Jersey ralliers rolled off the ferry to meet the organisers, marshalls and a couple from the UK who, on learning the ferry from the UK to Jersey was cancelled, had driven to Folkstone and down through

France early doors to meet us in time for the start.

With the First day’s clues in hand we set off. There’s something fantastic about setting off on a mission with only a vague plan of your route. Having solved our four clues to find the day’s stop points we were pretty sure we were on the right path, but still managed to do a figure of eight just outside St Malo. Our first ‘Location’ clue was French bridge or a close relative - just East of St Malo we located the answer; a small town called Pontorson. Fortunatley we arrived there before all the others had left and joined a few teams for a croque monsieur. The day went well and we crossed beautiful countryside and passed through quaint towns. The loving smile of rural French pensioners when they see a ground of Rosbifs fly through in convoy is truly a site to behold.

Evenings on the rally are everything you’d expect of a French holiday with good food in a rural French hotel; tasty morcels, flowing wine and good times as everyone waits to see how they’ve faired with clues during the day. Fortunately for us we seemed to be holding our own, sharing the top spot with a few die hard ralliers, some of whom already had their name engraved as winners on the GalleryRally trophy.

The first night saw us staying at a familiar location; a beautiful country hotel with a windmill and cracking food we stayed at on the rally in 2009. Ralliers socialised into the night and morning. That’s the beauty of the Rally, no-one is going to berate you for burning your candle at both ends provided you’re capable of being up and at ‘em. Even a dip in the pool at 3am didn’t hamper our classic camper driving team...

Day two took us to Fontevraud-l’Abbaye (clue: holy place but confused Advent four) - an amazing Abbey that had an incredible and chequered past. The abbey became a prison from 1804 to 1963, in which year it was given to the French Ministry of Culture. Having been restored it now fuses incredible architecture with a modern art exhibition and a stylish >>>>>>>>

When in France... do as the French do...

Blatt blatt blatt... for the others anyway!

cafe. We had a coffee. Great Florentines. Other clues took us to pretty little towns and hunting for doorbells. On arriving at our destination for the evening, Bonnat, there were no cars in the carpark. Chip had arranged for a private racetrack nearby to be opened for our ralliers to get the most out of their cars for a few laps.

One of our R8s got a little more than that, spinning off in great style. Fortunately the car and driver were both unscathed. We wiled away the hours after dinner with some games of pool and I was fresh enough the next morning to make use of the pool. You know how swimming pools at hotels sit there, taunting you, calling you lazy. I wasn’t going to be defeated. Ahead of our day Chip had devised another non daytime quiz; a time trial to name as many of the 44 presidents of the USA as you could. Fortuntely with some well remembered song lyrics and a bit of Bill&Ted we managed to come out at the right end of the field.

Our rainy day three (the only rainy day in 5 years of rallies) took us to Privas, stopping for lunch at Le Chaise Dieu in the sort of restaurant where you wonder if they’ve EVER had a customer before. Privas, in the Ardeche was the location for this year’s paper aeroplane challenge. Ben’s brute force won us the prize for distance but the engineering of Adam and Chris was easily enough to grasp first place in the design category (below) - it even had a proper fuselage. Sadly for our UK entrants the mountains and mist had proved too much for their 911 speedster and they arrived for a late dinner courtesy of a long taxi ride. The pool at Privas also proved too tempting for a few ralliers (us included) and we got a few early hours swimming races in to work off the Vin de Table and bottles that followed.

We awoke to learn that the Speedsters had a new means of transport. As it seemed a bit tricky to get back to their car and a hire car was to be troublesome, they hopped into the back of Karl and Neil’s classic VW Combi for a ‘Summer Holiday’ style final day. After breakfast we had an extra challenge for the day; to find a pineapple, a melon, two red hats and some lavender in order to fill a clue later that day. It was to get a photo at the summit of Mt Ventoux, a famous Tour de France stage. The cyclists at the summit looked a little bemused when a slew of J plated supercars came over the brow and parked up amongst their steeds.

Safely off the mountain and after a quick motorway section we arrived on the beautiful coast of St Tropez just before sunset to the usual amazing finale hotel where you feel you’re suddenly a high roller. Thankfully the 900 euro a night rate was for the other guests. Part of your entry fee ensures a great deal on the hotel!

A gala dinner, a firework display over the superyachts mored offshore and a win (the first in five years) for team Gallery couldn’t have finished the rally off in any better form. Some ralliers snuck off early and others came to our room to do the best to drink their prize wine, kindly sourced and distributed by our cluemaster. Four days of stories and we’re still counting up the fundraising total and following up next month. Here’s looking forward to next year!

We could only do a brief overview here. Garry and Mike, our most consistent champion ralliers, have an amazing blog of all past Galleryrally and Tour de Liberation at www.itsanevoadventure.org.je Please check it out!

Questions

fAQs Wtf

WhAt Are You WAiting for?tear oFF your entry Form and send it in to jersey hosPice care with your dePosit cheque. First come, First serVed and you get a lower rally Plate numBer, which oFFicially makes you eVen more likely to win*.

*not really, that’s down to you...

What is the aCCommodation like?On the way down the hotels are of at least Novotel standard. In a couple of rallies we stayed in one hotel that even had a windmill attached! Rooms are shared with your co-pilot so you can debrief on your day’s drive. The hotel on the last night is always something special.

do i need a fast or expensive Car?No. All you need is a car in a suitable condition to survive 2000 miles and a sense of adventure, as well as a sense of humour and a compass (or a sat nav, if you’re lucky!). Over the past five years we’ve had Aston Martins, Ferraris, Camper Vans and even a taxi!

What time do i have to get up?On the first day we catch the early ferry to France. On all other days the rally starts at 9am sharp. What time it ends is up to you. Most people get back to the hotel at 5pm, but some contestants have been known to arrive much later, depending on their competitiveness!

hoW far do you drive eaCh day?Each day of the rally is about 250 miles. As this is broken up by clues along the way, you are unlikely to ever have to drive more than 60 miles in one go. Most of the rally is ‘off motorway’ and so will be driving along very quiet empty roads through gorgeous countryside.

What else do i need to do?It is a good idea to have 5 star insurance cover, a large scale Michelin map of France and the items required by French authoritites in case your car breaks down. You will also need to get your car serviced prior to setting off.

When Will i get baCk? hoW muCh time Will i have to take off Work?In essence it’s a long weekend so not much at all. The rally leaves on Friday morning and arrives in our destination city on Monday evening. Some people head straight back the following day to get an evening ferry and others take their time driving back. If you want to stay on at the resort, alterations can easily be made. You’ll be contacted by the organiser to confirm your return date once you’re signed up.
