I'm planning to be there for about 10 ish.....
Perhaps we should suggest a meet point, how about the museum shop for 10..45?

, let's go for it James, weather may effect progress on the motorways but we will aim for that,see you tomorrow

Mr Gazza · 25-10-2019, 10:48 PM

Okay... See you in the shop if we're there in time..

26-10-2019, 05:32 PM

Well, what can we say........guys,really great to catch up with you all,James,Richard,Jeff and Gazza.....lots of positive discussion ,great breakfast and lots of criac!:biggrin

Such a shame about the museum, so near yet so far !,didn't see that coming....so due to weather all visitors turned up in cars,car parks got full and the overflow car park was flooded so no one could get in.......

Still,we had a decent meet up, hope everyone got back ok.....Mark and I went up the A41 again ,still a lot of standing water but rain stopped around 4 o'clock.

Until next time ...

One of the people i went up with on yesterdays disaster emailed the museum & they gave us all free passes to be used whenever....which i suppose goes some way in saying 'sorry our fault ' so give it ago .could be useful for a national meet up sometime next year....
hope this helps

Mr Gazza · 27-10-2019, 05:33 PM

Thanks for a more constructive idea Roger. Although I still think the spanking would be fun.
I will try the email route, as funnily enough Jeff and I did discuss the idea of a club run out to the Museum next year, as we splashed our way home.

Oh dear.......

Email pinged off on behalf of our party of ten, now hospitalized suffering from PTSD.

Would you believe it? Ten free passes dropped through the letterbox this morning.

I have pm'ed all those who tried to get in last Saturday to see if they all want their passes. If not there might be some spares going.
I have a vague notion of a club ride out to the Museum next Summer, so they could come in handy for that.

.........invitation accepted mate, can we agree to keep a close eye on the weather before we go

, I may even give them some advice on drainage too

Mr Gazza · 03-11-2019, 08:04 AM

Nice one Mike.. Agreed, they could use some advice on a few matters!

I note from their website, that they exhibit only British motorcycles. Maybe they should be re-named the Nationalist Motorcycle Museum? But lacking in the Dunkirk spirit..
