We are having our first meeting at the Wagon and Horses Sunday Lunchtime (noon) 6th April.
As well as our usual tall stories and banter we shall be enjoying the fine food prepared by Dawn .
As they are always busy on a Sundays, I really need to give them an idea of numbers, so could you guys help me by giving me a show of hands.
Looking forward to meeting you all

Hi Darin
It is on the Old Frome road. Coming from Bristol you take a left off the A37 at the cross roads at the top of the hill between Oakhill and Shepton Mallet.

Obviously it's ideal to come on a Zed, but if it's not ready or it's pissing down bring what you've got or even a car
Cheers

Of course there is the option for you to put yourself up for being the Cornwall rep ... And then you could hold your own meetings closer to home. We have always been well supported by the Devon boys and we always get representatives from Cornwall at our rallies.

yes vduk, the idea ran through my mind a while back, im absolutely not trying to cause a stir, it just dawned on me that there may be a good few down this end that would like a meet up here and there. I would have no problem traveling the distance for a weekend bash, but not for a one day meet up. i did recently organize a meet up for another club im in and got a great turn out for January, meeting on the Devon border, got drenched on the journey back though

im certainly hoping to get up to bigger meet up there this year as i now have a bike to travel on.
