Very well done that man.

As soon as your roundel is applied you will be able to get moody, sulk, post porn, irritate everyone, give everyone a lift, make us laugh, make us sad etc, etc, etc it's what life is all about if you want to share it that is ....

... and when you're ready you can storm off in a huff and leave the club in a flurry of insults and tyre smoke

It's greeeeaaaaaaaaaat being a member

... of this club

Joined last year - doubt I'll bother renewing. The only thing I've got for my £20 is the mag which frankly ain't worth it. Perhaps if I lived somewhere else it might be different but down here in the SW I find it a bit out of the way to get involved in DSC stuff. I'll continue to post on the DSC board but I find there is more SW networking available through http://www.ducatisti.co.uk largely because it has a better web site and message board and doesn't have all the politics and bickering over club constitution, DD etc.

Sharpy has gone quiet, maybe he's trying to justify the £20 over some carbon...

nope, just went to get a shish n donner
mmm lovely !

my big wooden spoon worked a treat didn't it ? LOL

[GsxrAge]

I voted no !

I agree with David Hicks, down here in the south west there is very little benefit to us.

As for Henners just over a year ago I was asking the same questions about joining the dsc and Henners persuaded me to join He even offered to pay for my membership ! so something can't be right if the same bloke a year or so later is saying it aint worth joining.

I am no longer a member as all I ever got from the dsc was stickers and a key fob and Pronto thats not worth £20 !

I could not come on DSC track days no more anyway as from next sat I will be the proud owner of a K7 gsxr 750 in black

[Brogins]

I voted yes... 20 quid?? no worth 20 quid the membership? I will renew it even from Italy.....
Sitting with Lorenzo Lanzi at Silverstone with Skids and challenging Troy Bayliss for a race... PRICELESS.....

[Henners]

Getting all the advice and banter on this board (24 x 7 now the webteam have cracked it) is good value for 38 pence* a week !

Paying for your membership fee over and over again with discounts from dealers and insurance is good value for 38 pence a week !

Heavily discounted club trackdays even just once a year (and especially at Cadwell this year) are good value for 38 pence a week !

Getting a club mag that is gonna get better all the time is good value for 38 pence a week !

Having access to a network of regional organisers is good value for 38 pence a week !

Being a member of a club with it's very own race series is good value for 38 pence a week !

Being part of a club through which I've met people who I'm proud to call some of the best friends I've ever had is absolutely priceless !!!

... you're absolutely right mate - my cheque is also in the post

I think that's called politic, nothing else. And for people who don't care about that (like me), that's far from being an issue.

And since I met Roy at the brillllllllllllllllllllllllant DSC trackday, I ever wonder if I'm not going to join the GBDOC as well. Just to enjoy all the good things of both clubs (trackdays...) and leaving the politics to others. Those who leave clubs
