I have sent in application form for a club stand with camping area.

We have been issued with 6 pairs of entry tickets so I guess its only fair that they go to the first 12 on the list.

Entry for anyone else is £12 pp for weekend and £8 pp day pass.

Camping costs (Friday and/or Saturday)   £10 per vehicle per night.

Trike is only 4 speed so revs get a bit high (4k) over 75-80 mph. Not much of a motorway cruiser on account of it being a bit like a shopping trolley :-)

Had a great day though. Whats the next one?
cheers

Well the weather definitely improved on the Sunday, the Saturday disco was something to experience but they did try their best
Great idea to have a service van in the club as it came in quite handy, plenty to see and do and as previous posts well worth a visit next year
