Blinky501 and wife (jay & Sally - sometimes known as Stella)


Pete, Craig & Jay are all on the track

Hisnibbs (Keith) is on the track and down for the weekend I believe
Mangocrazy and his wife are i believe camping and on the track

Nooj may well be in attendance - as may Debz - if she is then we will not get to witness Nooj's pavement pizza art....

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

I'll get the local air-ambulance on standby ... particularly if Jay is taking a stella fuelled blast around the track .........
:smt018

I'll try to drop in at some point over the weekend - after all, Mallory is only just down the road.

For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

Myself and Mrs Mango are thinking about this. Normally at this time of year we're in France, but the last couple of years has just been too bloody hot. How do we sign up and what are the accommodation options?

http://www.vmcc.net/1000bikes/scripts/preregister.asp

That's the application form - 46 quid gets you a "parade lap"

And free admission for the weekend for two

Accomadation wise.... Camping is I fear the only on site option left....

I think a few folk will be doing that - several thousand last year!
And a few folk from here lol

It's a great week end - decent bars, decent events - last years stunt show was amazing... And the legends were awesome to watch and chat too

Look forward to seeing you there

Unfortunately, you'd need to spend in excess of £25000 per annum on bearings belts motors gearboxes industrial and hydraulic hoses, otherwise i'd invite you all up :smt010
