Let me answer this.

What would be the answer from 90% of members?

However Martin has helped organise Raid the Lakes andd many other ride outs. He has also driven 50 miles to help people out with electrical problems.

The disaffected North West group have been active before in the past. JPM and Lily organised the WInter Warmer, JPM organised the unofficial DSC Oulton track Day and have attended other DSC meets down south.

My contributions have been more in line with writing articles for Pronto about riding Ducati's (France, Morocco, charity ride Lands End/John O Groats) but i've been prepared to contribute in some way.

SteveM has organised the North West Mega meets.

The question isn't just about Henners, its the whole situation within the club which desperately needs resolving.

MartinH hit the nail on the head, the DSC isn't what it used to be.

Its not just the North West region either.

Why did the entire Scottish region debunk?

There are still a lot of really good people in the DSC, but the current trend is a very sad downward spiral.

I don't think anyone is going out to deliberately cause trouble, they are just reacting to legitimate concerns which have been aired many times.
