Wow, what a show !!

Just reflecting on a fantastic Rhino’s Classic 2017 

We smashed it ! 

A total of 58 athletes took the stage this afternoon at the Stamford Corn Exchange.

The standard of the athletes was simply outstanding, with many local lads and lasses sharing the stage with others from literally across the whole of the UK, there really was some world class physiques on show today.

A heartfelt thank you from the Rhino's team for choosing

The atmosphere once again was superb, typical of an old school bodybuilding competition. Thank you, to you, the audience for making the show what it was.

It gave me immense pleasure to stand on that stage alongside my beautiful family and as Lee Kemp (MC) very eloquently put:- "For a small town such as Stamford and an independent show to put on a competition of such magnitude and standard with such quality athletes" makes me truly proud.

Once again , thank you all for such nice comments.

Here’s to Rhino’s 2018 , even bigger and better !!
