Duncan,

I'll be there. Probably in the car as the weather doesn't look brilliant. I will make it on the bike one of these days.

Cheers

Matt

NEWS FLASH!

If you're a non-smoker like me, the bar will be a much better place to be from now on.

(by the way I'm an ex-smoker so I'm the biggest hippocrit going!)

I'll be there.

While the nights are still light, any interest in an evening run-out somewhere? Was interested in what the Ashby meet was like, wondered about either the Drive&Dine or going further afield to another meet / region (Northants meet maybe?)

I'll be there... in a goddamn courtesy car banghead

Those of you who saw me in the car ready to set off for LeMans at the ashby meet on the tues night last month will know i was all set and the car was working fine. However 100 miles into the journey on wed morning it appears the front pinion bearing collapsed on the gearbox and i didnt make it in my car. In fact we didn't even make it to dover before failure. Hence why the gearbox and engine have to come out once again and i'm back in a courtesy car.

To say that thing is trying my paitience is an understatement. All i can say is it better be bloody good when i get it back!

I could arrange a Northants meet to tie in... Usually they meet up in the pub for a wednesday, but it does clash with some things, so turn out is sometimes only a few of them, apparently Foxton locks is quite nice, never been but there is a few car meets there


we are off to Ashby again this week, however maybe we can make the august one?

You have my sympathy.
Although I think it was a pretty elaborate scheme to make sure your car didn't get muddy!

Tell us about it on Tuesday.

Plans for next month's meet folks?

Ashby Folville (if it's dry and the cricket pitch is open)

Or a different venue with some decent surrounding roads

Also I shall probably be going to the Northants Run on Sunday 12/8/07.

Any takers or suggestions?

I shall probably be recovering from a hangover on Sunday 12/8/07.

But nice idea to join up with someone else...definitely up for either Ashby or somewhere different over the summer...
