I have a spare room booked at the Hurricane if required.

As I have my own stand at the show I am unable to help on the day but I can bring my ratty used KH400 if required, and am happy to help in any way I can.


WE MUST NOT LOSE OUR SPOT AT THIS SHOW (THE MAIN CLASSIC BIKE SHOW OF THE YEAR) COME ON LADS LETS PULL TOGETHER AND GET THIS SORTED.

I can bring my well travelled KH 400 - I hope that my shoulder should have recovered by then.

Stick an old tent in the background , prop Adew French bikes ( a.k.a. Hard ridden and road dirty

and bin the carpet tiles and spotlights. a few other bikes with Spannies , a knackered old nail,like Malc's H2C , and we can be the Club who claim to have started the backlash against the Trailer Queen over restored tarts handbags !!!

Bring it on. Get Nipper,up , wearing his old Denco T Shirt, with a glass of Jack in hand. Real Bikers rule !!!
floats my boat,so many years of looking at sparkly bikes that never hit the road,the mankier the better,not a drop of polish to be seen Thumbs Up 8)

That's cool Malc,
That's what's needed, nobody's done that sort of thing and I think it will be a hit Thumbs Up

I can help man the stand for one of the days - flexible as to which, provided I know far enough in advance
Could bring up the H1A - definitely a "real world" bike but I imagine that's no good if I'm only there for a day

Be good to meet some of you in any case

Very encouraging to see all the offers of help and the enthusiasm, but to correct Malcolm's earlier post, I gave two years' notice! I'll be talking to Malc W in the week, so hopefully get the minimum necessary to him to make a show of it. Don't forget the regalia; Stafford is one of the best selling opportunities! Fantastic of JP to offer to come all that way; the man is a legend in his own time! As are any of his friends who come with him.

OK.

I am sure that by everyone chipping in we can make it a good display as usual.

Thanks to everyone that has offered to help out Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

I have only been to the Stafford show once before. My vans engine blew up and I vowed to never return , but Hey Ho.

Roger Ramm has offered to assist me as I have never attempted anything like this before,

but I didn't want our Club to loose its spot at this prestigious show.

I am not too sure what themes have been carried out in the past and what theme everyone would like this year ????

I do not currently have a room booked for the show, what or who do I need to talk to ???

I look forward to seeing you all.

THANKS 8)
