Folks,

I gave the treasurers presentation at the AGM this year and whilst I dont have the details to hand at the moment, from memory not only diid we contribute towards the Ducati Truck at Bands, we had to provide racers with stickers for the series, we incurred costs for end of year trophies, etc.

All of this was passed by the auditor and the AGM.

So yes the full membership did contribute to DD in the 1st year, just as the Club will be providing some of the trophies for this year at the Dinner Dance.

Overall Desmo Due is a small cost item to the Club, there is no income stream attached to it, unless we were to levy an entry fee of some sort from each rider.

This is the bit that I don't recall, and it seems that Ian wasn't aware of this either by his post above. Sorry Ian, I don't mean to pick on you or the decision I'm just trying to point out what appears to be a lack of clarity/communications on this.

When I asked the question at the AGM Chris you told me that the money in the accounts attributed to DD was for the DUK truck - nothing else. You didn't mention the stickers etc and I recall being told by either yourself or Monty at the start of last season that all the stickers were supplied by the sponsors themselves - why would we pay sponsors to ride with their stickers?!
