Well I managed to show my face and meet a couple of you.
GB, nice to meet you, and thanks for the talk through on your bike, and big congrats on winning the PC cup.

Paul D, hope the condition of the parts was what you expected, and that you caught the ferry in time

Stand wise, very neat and well laid out, but [no criticism of the club] I think the judges sometimes get swayed by themes/novelty value or similar. The Suzuki katana club form a couple of years ago springs to mind with the members dressed as Samurai warriors [ god help us !]

My bike will never be clean enough to go on the stand, but it will be in Germany next July.

Well done to all who helped out .

Great cupla days at the show, me and our kid met a number of guys on the stand, good to put faces and real names to people. Big thanks to Jerry et al for a great stand your efforts are really appreciated (take note VJMC you don't need all that themed Bollox!). Padders doin' really well with the 'merch' even relieved me of a few 'hard earned' for a jacket! Get yer self one boys they are fantastic quality and a snip at 45 quid.
AGM was interesting/entertaining and from what I can gather more than usual number of attendees - bigger room and more biscuits for Pigford next time??, again great to meet the people behind the website names with some ongoing issues hopefully now resolved. Again big thankyou to everyone involved with organising the show stand, merchandise and the club mag- stars one and all :more .
Roll on 2012.

Went on Sunday with my boy and had a great time looking around, he's already looking for a project at the age of 9 :shock: although he's steering towards the dark side and likes the look of the KH250's.

The stand was fantastic and we came by a couple of times during the day to see just what mine should look like. Credit to all involved :rocks

Ginger Bear the photo's just do not do justice to your paintwork and you should have got more recognition from the show judges. Obviously being judged by one of the no.7 bolt crew. Congrats on the Phil Churchett award.

Didn't make the show last year for one reason and another so I was quite impressed with the amount of bikes on display compared with 2009. Wall of Death was still the same! Good amount of displays in the road race section with plenty of open pipe bikes being started and run.

Got to say though the Yamaha stands best bikes were a very nice H2 and a pristine ZRX750!!!!!

Nice to see everybody, great weekend apart from being frozen stiff in my tent, next time I will close the zip :oops: if nothing more than to block the sound of Baz snoring in his triple quilted two sleeping bagged tent :idea: (t**t). Well done GB for the award and the team for the stand and Ted and his black & white cat for the entertainment

Just a quick couple of lines to thank all of the members that popped along and supported the stand. Too many to list here but great to meet you all and sorry if I had to break off mid conversation to serve some one. Once again a great show and special thanks must go to all those that took the time to show their bikes on the stand and to Ginger Bear for once again fetching the alloy structure and lighting down. Jerry and Jayne for arranging all the tickets etc and manning the stand and last but not least Steve and Karen for all their help over the weekend with the merchandise and the raffle tickets.

I had a great time in great company.

See you all next year.

Very nice - it's great to see the participation - a great display of bikes.

One day I'll get over for the show. It would be nice to put faces to names. There's only a couple of members I've met face to face.
73 Z1 (turbocharged), a 74 Z1A, and some h***a's and Suzuki's...
