[quote="gronk"]CALLING ALL NEWBIS come along to THE BIG MEAT. This is a great opportunity for anybody new to the club to meet other club members and find out a bit of information on your new bike, and to sort out any problems that you may have with it.
Ere is a list of possible activities that you could be taking part in.
1 Mooching around campsite boozing all day
2 Discovery ride around the area, watch gliding at Long Mynd Gliding club
3 Green Laning (curently been looked into by Geoff).
4 Maintenance/ specific job demonstrations by Minter and others depending on who breaks down.
5 RAF Cosford (I suspect that Mr Shinny may know a bit about this).
6 Piss up in local pub
7 The opportunity to sample the fine dining experience, that is to be had in the MT Club Canvas Canteen.
and all for only 36 of your British pounds, of which I have now paid so see ya there.
8 There is also the option of going to Stafford classic bike show.

A word of warning to anyone who will be arriving inside a 4 wheeled vehicle eg. campervan. DO NOT use the road from Church Stretton that goes over the top of the Long Mynd (Burway Road) as this can be a bit scary.

Thank you to all of you who have paid so far.
Can we ask for all remaining payments to be made by Friday 31 March please to confirm your place so we can know definite numbers for planning the food etc

We do still have space for some more, so if you want to come along please add your name to the list this week .

thanks

Just paid - including hook up..

I will be there from Thursday afternoon which i will book with the campsite now..

A change of scenery will be perfect for a few days!!

I will have the entire MTRC club shop set up for anyone that would like some cool merch!

Also I will have plenty of Rotax and MT goodies on display for sale - a bit like a mini Stafford show! These will include the big bore kits in all there glory, brand new still in the boxes 500e engines, Sportax Exhausts and Carbs. Any of these purchased over the weekend will be fitted FOC.

Sadly there will be no credit terms from either shop! But I do have a card reader for anyone wishing to make a purchase by card.

I'll be giving the riding a miss this weekend to man the shop and enjoy the scenery from my arm chair!

If anyone wants anything specific bringing just let me know...

See you all there!

:D

Just paid, :D

Not sure if I will be riding there or bring my MT on a trailer.

I have decided this is my last MT event before I sell the 604e. It has taken me years to decide, but the MT has to go because I just do not use it enough and do not have the space to keep an underused bike. :(

My thinking is that if I trailer it up, I could bring all my MT bits along, so that anyone interested can make me an offer. But it would be nice to end with a bit of ride up and back. Decision decisions!!

See you up there! :mrgreen:
