Ducati Sporting Club UK > Events > Rideouts, Meets and other Events > BMF Appeal Run - Ducatis needed!

Now come on all you local folks (200 mile radius ) it's that time of year again where the local BMF Rep organises a short run made up of a number of bikes (111 last year!) starting at the Burger King in King's Lynn and ending up at the town hall for tea & biscuits with the Mayor.
It's an appeal run to raise food for the old folk at christmas and participants are asked to bring along items found in an Xmas hamper.
It's good publicity for bikes and they even send along some of Norfolks finest to block off roads to ensure an nice smooth run.
I thought it was very nice of the "boys in blue" to give each bike a good looking over whilst we were up having tea with the Mayor last year
So come on you fellow Ducati riders- let's make an effort to drown out some of those rice burners and prove to people what a good hearted bunch of superior beings we are :P
The run is on November 22nd and starts at 2pm from the BK just off the A47/A10 roundabout in King's Lynn (Norfolk)

Sounds like a good one Mark, At presant Im unsure as to whether I could make it what with commitments down my neck of the woods ,but if --------- Regards Fordie

Mmmmm, big response !
No it might not be appealing to ride alongside a bunch of Jap bikes.
No there's nothing in it for you.
No you don't have to bother.
No you won't know anyone.
Yes there are better things to do.


It'll be a poor show if the best Ducati club in the UK is only represented by 1 person.
Not likely to get a mention in the local press- who knows we exist?

'Nuff said. Off soapbox.

Oiy! If someone accompanies me from Notts I'll go! My Dad has given me permission!

If keefyboy can get a pass we are going for a bimble up to Grantham. We could meet up with you towards Notts if you like. If you've got someone to accompany you then we'll meet in Grantham anyway.
C'mon let's rally the troops

Oiy! Notts lot...You comin or what?

psy.
I know you would m8.
Get yerself fit & well for the BMF Show. Hopefully if we can get a few more enthusiastic members to support this BMF event we'll get recognition from them and therefore a better stand area.
I don't think many people realise what the BMF is all about. They provide legal advice, have many member discounts and lobby the Government to try and maintain our rights as bikers. As our club is an affiliated member I feel we should make an effort to support them and promote bikes in events such as this.
