Yeah I'm up for that Dave, what do you mean "dodgy people" that's no way to talk about Shaun I will be ordering tickets this week, my brother in law & my mate Bruce want to go. Adey said he can't wait to go again & fight all the women off again! & if Nobby doesn't go the shares in newkie brown will be down & hundreds will be out of work! Might even convince Jackie to go

If you have to ask why I ride, you wouldn't understand the answer!

Gonna have to try and wangle some holiday - already have to work another 1 1/2 months to accrue the holiday I have already taken!! The folks at work have already started to ask if I can manage two full weeks in a row! 
If push come to shove, I can always go down after work, its only 20 miles away. That way, you will have a chance off keeping up in the drinking race if you have a 3 hour start!!

At the risk of openning up a can of worms again... when it says "back patches by prior arrangement only" would that mean the MC clubs e.g Hells Angels ? i.e 1%ers ?
a yes or no would suffice
If you do it today you MIGHT regret it. If you CAN'T do it tomorrow you WILL regret it.

Yes! they say that so that the rally is seen as impartial & none of them get offended

In my experience, back patch members tend to keep themselves to themselves, and usualy go to these do's to enjoy themselves like the rest of us, and in anycase the organisers generaly know which ones have issues, so you might find that there's a number of back patch clubs at a rally, these are usualy ones that normally get on anyway. There are only a few clubs that have other agendas, and I have never seen them at rallies together, they do there own, so the status quo is balanced out. Live and let live, nobody with a back patch is gunna be bothered with you, unless your gunna be bothered with them.

At the moment, not me.
I'll only have been back from the States a week so I'll have to see.
Looking doubtful though.
Wouldn't it be nice to say 'if' I come back from the Sates??
Might buy me a bike and keep riding until the man catches up with me!

I'm up for it (as long as the weather holds) & as I am only 1/2 hour from the site, I can decide at very short notice!
