Everything is now coming into place, got the patches, awards in hand, run outs sorted. Even have a bottle of neat Spirytus in the cupboard! Only a couple of bunks left and camping, so if you are thinking of coming, let me know.

Guys, I really hoped I could make it this year, but wife asked me not to go. I do what the wife says and well the married guys understand. Sending Martyn some money for Saturday night entertainment, Ale or food your call just imagine I was there with you. I was really hoping to see the Iseo gang again, but alas...not so. So think of me while I am working on a project bike for a quick turn around. Got a plane Jane Harley 883 from a guy at work, price was low so I can jazz it up and flip it. Had so much fun doing my bike this winter I want to try my hand at regular customizing for folks. We'll see how it goes. Cheers! eddy

Hi Al we will be out on Saturday & Sunday on ride outs most of the day & we can't get on to the site until after 3pm on the Friday. Late Sunday would mostly likely be the best. Cheers Martyn My mobile number is: 07787 413873

Thanks Martyn & Jackie for a great meet, just a shame we could not stop longer than the one night.Enjoyed putting faces to names with everyone from Europe, and meeting Eddy from the US, just a shame we did not have time for a good natter... Until we meet again....

Well the Euro Rally is over for another year and Jackie & I would like to thank everyone that attended, you guys & girls made it very special & we both miss you already. Thanks for all the help with the chores and the funds contributed, you are all very special people who I count as good friends and look forward to catching up with each year. Fast Eddy flying in made this year even more special and I now have a "Twin brother" from the USA... Thanks again & see you all next year

Finally got back last Friday night - got bogged down a bit catching up ... I guess this is the right place to say something since it is the BA rally. Firstly a big "thank you!" to Martyn and Jackie for the organizing of the event and for ensuring all went well. Also to both of you for slaving around in the backround while we were there. It didn't go unnoticed. Martyn, I don't know who you spoke to ... but the weather looked after us. Even when tricky it kind of worked around our outings. It was good to meet some new people too, particularly Adey with whom we had joked about Jaffa cakes for around 7-8 years ... and then I didn't touch one, when he finally brought some.  The multiple "sponsored" dinners and creativity in the making of the prizes (well done Andy!) were amazing. A quick word of thanks too, to Nick and Kathy, who both gave me the royal treatment, each in their own country, on my way back. Another quick word to Fasteddy ... "what makes you think I can handle seeing you more than once a year, punk ... I saw you again last January"  It was a nice surprise to see you again Ed ... nice one! To Shaun, Dave, Andy, Adey, Holly, Martin + their young miracle Christopher, Martyn and Queen Jackie ... it was a long time coming but you did your country proud and it was well worth the long trek for me from Greece as I am sure it was for our friends from Germany, Poland and Sweden. As usual, I tend to lose my way and make a long trek ... longer ... This was my final route ... and IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!  : To next year!
