No need to apologise Ruth just because you have a life outside Ducatis. I get some stick from the Surrey massive for putting my wife before the club when it comes to the amount of time I can spend on my bike and the number of events I can attend. Can't be doing with this 'real club member' ****. Just be glad of my company when you get it I say

I live and breathe Ducatis,and have done for 15 years+.BUT however much i love my bike and riding,my Wife and children come first.I would love to do ALL things DSC/Ducati/bsb/bsb/gp related,but also want to see my Family.have a good time with them,offset with my love of bikes.It would be VERY interesting to see how many members sourth of the North/South divide would make REGULAR visits to say Croft,for get togethers,meetings and ride outs.I think that those of us in Yorkshire/Cumbria/northeast/North west do a SUPERB job of supporting the club!!Just my opinion and if i've over reated to the post i apologise in Advance!!

We all have different prioritys in life Family/money/work/health,all of wihich dictate what level of commitment we can make to the club.As previously stated,if you pay your subscription you are no more or less a member of this club than anyone else.

I shall prepare myself to be flayed!!
