Uttoxeter?

Any news on whats happening (or not) with the upcoming VJMC Show at Uttoxeter; it's only three weekends away?
Are we having a stand or just meeting at the campsite?
Are there free tickets or do we need to book our own?


Any information would be useful...........

Be careful Boyd !


You offer to Help,give up your free time or time off from work.
Some might think you are joking especially if you have a small one on offer !
On top of that you still dont get a reply untill after the event. :-\

Yes, sorry, been meaning to type something about this, but my slightly frenetic lifestyle of late has been distracting me.

Yes we have a stand, no we haven't got any firm numbers or even bikes lined up.

So... who would like to show their bike on the club stand? It means free weekend tickets and the show is really good fun.

In line with the discussion following last year's show I don't think we have to make a big effort, just turn up and have fun.

I will be bringing club banners and my GB, along with all the usual club stand stuff. I will also bring my big tent for us to use as a mess tent if the weather gets nasty.

We had a nice relaxed event last year so let's see if we can repeat the experience.

So that seems like at least three bikes. Does it mean that bikes will be on a stand Sat & Sun? Not a problem either way just need to know.

GC if there are 'free' weekend tickets can you make sure that they are sent out well in advance especially if there are enough spare for the lads from NI! I'll definitely be there as it's only just up the road from me.

I think you have to leave the bikes there on Friday night and pick them up on Sunday after the show but Graham will no doubt correct me if Im wrong

Security were quite relaxed last year, as long as you could establish that the bike was yours and pushed it around they let us take ours about 5.30pm on Saturday (we had a VOC rally on Sunday at Stanford Hall) and put them on the stand late Friday night. A really nice, relaxed, fun show.

I'll be there on the Friday night on the SRX, as long as I can sort out how to carry everything  ;)  We took the car last year for all the camping gear, but Sue's got cats and hens to look after this time, so I'll be on my own.

Looking forward to this one...

Yep, as Furry said, it's a relaxed show so we can (probably) wheel bikes on and off the stand outside of the preferred hours if we have to.

They gave us a heap of tickets last year, but I will have to get the bike list to them first before they issue them.

So far,

GC - GB500
Boyd - bike?
Trevor - SRX
Ian - SRX hybrid
Rob - CB250RS

Can peeps PM me fuller details of the bikes they want to show?

Anyone in touch with Bruce? It would be good to have his Norton there again.

Yes, almost certainly, but as I say I won't know how many until I've submitted the bike list.

As you're the first to ask you're the first on the list.
