Many thanks to Ted for the assistance with getting my bike on the road for the meet. Had many problems, and with trying to rush made it worse.
Good luck to Simon in his new role in 2010.
Many thanks to Ed for his commitment over the years.

Once again I read the weather wrong ................ It was shit it manchester didnt fancy 120 miles in the wet so worked in garage on one of my Z1R's looks like the BBC are as good at forcasting weather as they are are at entertaining us BOLLOCKS never mind cant be every where looks like a good turn out Well played ED during your stint as rep it will be a hard act to follow but PJ will rise to the occasion I'm sure

[Kev1R]

Can only echo previous sentiments......
Ed was (and is) excellent rep for the Z1 community, and good luck to Simon in his new role.
Nice to see everyone, and special mention to Ted1R, who must take the award today for longest distance travelled.
Cheers Kevin

Well that's another one gone, great turn up again boys and girls, good to see all of you again, especially for the end of october, it was raining when I started out and got soaked about five miles from home on the way back.

It was a sad sight, to see all the members crying with ED stepping down

However we had a vote and Paul Doran is the new west mids rep, no sorry that was a nightmare I had - only joking Paul, good to meet you at stafford, we had a vote and the new 2010 mids rep is simon gilling - congrats simon.




So 5, BLOODY FIVE Z1r's two Z1000's, 900 A4, Z1B, H2, and a Z1 oh yeah and graham on a mondern yam, get the zed done,

Well done TED1R coming all that way, good on ya matey

Looking forward to the last one in november boys and girls,

Also, guys, a few of us have mentioned, next summer shall we meet twice in the summer months and go for a ride out - who's up for it?

All the best PJ

PJ it would be a bloody nightmare for Me

all that long distance travelling and all that

good turnout and congrat's to Simon

[simon gilling]

Thank you all for such great support, Ed is a tough act to follow.

Thank you to John for proposing me and the assembled group for accepting me taking the post.

This year's turn outs have been great even on a rainy changeable day in late October. It seems that the more people turn up, then more want to!!

Ed remains the Midlands Rep to the end of 2009, I will take up the Mantle in 2010.

I will then be a point of contact for members and also will try to help with tech. queries, though the forum seems the best source of info, it sometimes helps to have someone at the end of a phone or in the garage.

Suggestions for runs are gratefully received, I also like the idea of two monthly meetings during the summer. I was also pondering whether to move to a different Sunday, the last Sunday of the month clashes with many family days and bank holidays.

As for getting a Z1R, been there already, the next project will (might) be a Z1/CSR 1000 hybrid...... when I find some time

I plan to be at the Griffin for the November meeting. hopefully on my Z1 and hope to you all there.

See you all soon

Simon

[Ed Z1-R]

Thanx to all who supported the meet on Sunday.

Congrats to Simon Gilling being elected as the next Midlandshire Rep who will be taking the controls at the start of 2010.

[MARK GB]

Hi nice to see a good turn out again even if I could not make it my self.
well done to Ed for the past few years ( good job well done ) and well done to simon for getting elected as new club rep for 2010 hopefully we will have as good a turn out next year. Nice idea to have a run out in between meetings should be good.I see the Z1R Owners club turned up again nice to see them all. All being well I will be at the November meeting.

See you all next time Mark.

PS - PJ Promise not to mention exhausts as I am now the proud
owner of a excellent chrome kerker happy days. .

[paul doran]

[PJ]

good job You did'nt wait on the Harris from Me Mark

He did say something about waste of space - not sure what he meant

[StevieT]

Great first meet for me in October. Plenty of advice on getting my bike running. I had planned to turn up for the November meet on a Z1 rather than a Thunderace this time (sorry!) but work commitments will mean I’m in India at the weekend and all of the following week.
Probably have food poisoning for the next two weeks after that if last time is anything to go by too!

See you all in the new year.
