Best news I've heard all year! I've been trying to put a post together outlining how much I have appreciated Chris (and CK's) freindship and ride-out organisation over the last year.

Suffice to say that owning and riding a Ducati has been a life-affirming experience for me over the last year, and the enourmous contribution both Chris and Charlotte have made to the Surrey section have been a huge part of this.

Here, Here

Lets give it everything we've got shall we folks...this club is too damned special to chase it's own tale until it disappears up it's own ori...

Edited to say: Tale? why is my spilling grammer up creek the and, surely I mean tail? Or do I

In the spirit of what's been said above I've decided to put my toys back into the pram and ask for my membership to be reinstated and carry on as RO for Surrey. Reserving judgment on the MT issues at the moment until the dust settles a little.

Great positive step Chris, highly commndable, best bit of news I've heard for a while

.. I resigned because of the actions of the chairman in removing my moderator status without telling me or consulting the whole MT who I am informed would have opposed it. This indicated to me that there were still some 'old guard' behaviours at play. To compound this I have mentioned above certain other things which some of the longer serving MT have got up to which I find abhorrent.

On the same evening Webby - unknown to me - also resigned from the club. We have been mates a long time so we discussed what we would do next and the idea of Ducati down South.com was born. Having taken advice from members of this club and the MT I have decided to put the launch of this new message board on hold for several reasons, not least of all because of the potential damage it could do the DSC.

Webby has made the decision to rejoin the club and having talked it through with me I fully support what he is doing and wish him every success as RO for Surrey.

I understand that Jasper has started a poll on the members’ area of the board looking for support in getting Webby, CK and I back as members. I can't speak for CK however for me it is not the right time to become a member again and I need to be convinced that all the assurance Paul James is making are met before considering taking that step.

Can I correct one major assumption most people have made? When I resigned it was assumed that I would not therefore fulfil my role as chairman of the club constitution committee. Nothing could be further from the truth and I look forward to getting membership responses from the advert in Pronto so that this piece of work can be completed as soon as possible.

I will remain a committed board member and look forward to seeing you all out and about before too long.

Explains a lot dahling. Ask her if she'll run the rules/constitution review committee for us, I'll chip in a tenner to pay for half of her subs. :P:P

Bike scheme sounds impressive to me, will you be having white fluffy cuffs on the sleeves of your leathers to match ???:P:P

Could be difficult, what with her having been dead for six years....

You see that as a problem ?????, at least she can't run away. That nephew of hers wasn't keeping in touch very well by the sound of it, bet he even missed the funeral
