Hmmmm....bit of a sweeping statement there David

I don't think that the BMF relies upon having a large number of DD'ers there, since DD is already more than adequately publicised as a club activity to would-be racers.

In fact I think that it would perhaps be better, this year, to focus upon what the club offers to the ordinary Joes like me and you. I also think that we should have a good hard think about the format we use. Last year, me and KeefyB took it upon ourselves to organise road bike displays and actually had too many - we thought we'd have the same size marquee as the previous year.

Psychlist and me have talked this over during MT meetings and you're right...time for a serious bit of early planning I think.

After last year, the BHCN crew were also talking about putting a bit of muscle into the BMF, 'cos it's on our doorstep. Let's keep talking about it because I for one love the craic of a weekend of bikes, more bikes, beer, beer, beer, barbecues, beer, bikes, banter and bollix

Sorry, that didn't come across right.

What I meant was that the Popham Mega-Meet has to go on the back burner again this year simply because most of those that would attend will come to the Cadwell Park Track (two) Day(er) which runs on the Mon/Tues following.

I believe the same will be true of the BMF in that a good proportion of those that would normally be there to help will be at Mallory on Sunday.

That probably also goes for spectators from the DSC.

Personally, sounds like a good weekend to me - BMF on Saturday, overnight stop and over to Mallory for the racing on Sunday.

However, in saying all that, coincidentally, the BMF forms and details turned up in the post today.

So what's it to be then? We have early option to get our plot and start in good time. We can start by making a provisional list of DSC helpers ....

Everton
Ramirez
Kwikbitch
Jools
KeefyB
F_E ( would Ducati_Dad be coming as well Andy?)

ps it's also very worth while doing simply from the -

Now thats got me thinking, how do I get to enjoy another of Lisa's curries and then get to Mallory.

May have to arrive at the BMF Friday, help setup stay the evening in the excellent company that is always a trade mark of the DSC, hang about for a fair chunk of Saturday and then trundle off to Mallory

Well thats one option

[CK]

Tell you what Skids - maybe I'll pop my road bike in the van for the Mallory trip, and then spin over to Lisa's curry night on the Sat
You wanna come pillion?

On 2nd thoughts - can anyone guarantee 'non' BMF weather??

[final_edition]

Is this happening As I need to confirm my leave for this date. If it isn't I could take my leave at another time.
I need to know by next week, any longer and I will miss the deadline for booking.
sorry to be a pain

What do you need to sort the curry out? Did you bring equiment, or was it a joint effort by everyone?

Oh, and has anyone got a fridge laying about we can use? For beer of course!

Mark.
