Before a conference to talk about the success of the 2015 event, and plans for the upcoming 2016 and 2017 Super Rally's with local people, press and authorities:

Back in May 2015, the Showground welcomed almost 8,000 bikers to the Super Rally, organised by West London Harley Riders. After the five day event, organisers thanked the city for their support and also the Showground team:

"As organiser of the FH-DCE Super Rally 2015, the only venue choice for the West London Harley Riders Event was the Lincolnshire Showground. It has all the facilities and infrastructure needed to accommodate a large-scale event such as ours. The staff were very helpful at every stage of planning, and during the event. We were very fortunate to have a dedicated team of people at Lincolnshire Showground with such knowledge and expertise in organising events such as the Super Rally.”
