MMCC patch`s(the most recent order) have now arrived with us and are now available,as the rest of the clothing comes in we`ll let you know.
Hi Guys.
The October meeting saw us gain another member, Paul's wife Lyn, who seemed
to be very happy giving us all a bit of stick, so promptly got voted in as
Chairman/woman/person, whatever!! Personally I think she will be good. Also
to stop Brendon wittering on about a bloodless coup he was made Hon Life
President (well you do need a more senior person for the role) and no it
does not mean you get free membership Brendon. So we now have some structure
to the Club with a Chairman (Lyn) a Secretary (Paul), a Social Secretary
(Alasdair) and a Treasurer (Me).
It was also agreed that we affiliate to the BMF from next January. As part
of the membership package, it gives the Club a good liability insurance deal
so we are covered for as many events as we hold, as well as giving
individual members some good discount deals at various outlets (check their
web site).
Also talked about for the coming year was the idea of camping/bunkhouse
weekends. Instead of just going for a ride out for a few hours once a
month, find a country Pub/Hotel a decent ride away with a bit of room for
camping or with a couple of rooms stay over night and return on the Sunday.
Like wise with the Bunkhouses. Any one with ideas please let us know. It
does'nt have to be up North, it could be down in the Borders or Carlisle way
to give our members South of the Border a chance to meet up.
We are still looking for suggestions for a name for our 2009 Rally which is
going to be held over the weekend of Sept 11th 12th 13th 2009 at Glen Forsa.
Any ideas???
I need to get some flyers out by November to get it into the rally circuit,
so far we have The Mucky Mulluichs Rally, The Organ Doners Rally and the
White Tail Rally,
Let me know ASAP.
What with the Car Rally, school holidays and such there will not be an Oct
run out by the club, and November's run will be to the Northern Lights
Rally, over the weekend of the 7th 8th 9th Nov. the Rally will be held at
The Red House Hotel, Cruden Bay. Aberdeenshire. It is run by the Aberdeen
MCC. We are going up on the Saturday and coming back Sunday, any one
interested contact Alasdair Ingram. At the moment there are three of us
going but the more the merrier .
Don't forget it's YOUR Club so any ideas on the way forward let us know,
that includes you lot hiding away down there in Blackpool, Nottingham, and
Bournemouth not to mention Thailand!!!
Remember Bikes are for riding not looking at!!!!!
Cheers Dave.
Ps. Despite all the rabbitting that went on at the last meeting, we did not
set up a meeting for November so it will be at the Glen Forsa on the 14th
November 8pmish.
