Andy, why you hate me so?

[andyb]

now you know thats not true.............

I've had 5 Ducati's in all, but don't have a bike at the moment. I'm still a member. Why? Because I've met some great people and had some fantastic experiences. The complainers? Its the same handful of names over and over. They just like complaining. Ignore 'em.
Join up. Let's play!

[bradders]

after the **** I've had this morning I wouldnt join now and wont be recomending!! So take one off the count and add to dont join!!

One thing I wont miss is the unwelcoming clique that exists in this club

[Fordie]

Ive been a paid up member of the DSC for 5 years now, the reason I joined in the first place has not changed . I wanted to be associated with people that had a common interest. I was a little "twitchy" at first when I went out on my first meet and since that one day not only have I seen the club grow and expand as it has, but the most important thing Ive meet and made some good buddies whom I have total respect for on and of the road. I doubt very seriously had I not joined I would have missed out on some of the best times I could possible have had with "people that have a commom interest" The £20 fee is just a little "commitment" that I feel one must show to be a true member of the DSC. As a member I then feel I can pass comments and make a contribution to the welfare of this club. 4D

Henry, I know that you have had a torrid time of it as membership secretary, and after you stepped down from it. I won't tell you that you're wrong to feel negative towards Clubs in general, and the DSC in particular, you feel what you feel based upon your experience. My own thoughts and feelings are based upon my experience with the Club, and it's been a lot more positive for me.

.. I have no negative feelings towards the DSC, just certain members of the MT. I still post here, I still go on ride-outs, I still support club events when I can, I will help anyone who asks for it. The question Sharpy asked was should he join the club or not. I expressed my views on clubs in general and issues that I know exist with this one.

Thanks for clarifying, Henry. You had originally indicated that you have a problem with clubs in general, and defined your reservations. You're as entitled to post your reservations here as I am to post my support for joining the Club.

I do hope I haven't ******ed-up your invitation to visit your stately home in Spain one day. I may get around to it eventually!

[Henners]

No good trying to be nice now .....

[Loz]

I wouldn't know where to start, anyway!

Who's the one sitting on the fence then ? LOL
