Not long home (5:45pm) after another brilliant weekend at Stafford. Thanks once again to Graham and Gareth especially but thanks also to everyone else who donated their machines to use on the stand for the weekend. Nice to see Michael again and yes the flat tracker exists 😉.
Cheers Ian 👍🏍?👍

Yes, same here. Just got back after as Ian says a brilliant weekend, great to catch up with everyone and a massive thanks to both Gareth and Graham for all their, organising, hard work and hospitality. Top stuff, thanks chaps. Err, what d’ya mean the tracker project exists, not only does it exist but it also has the worlds first gravity defying front mudguard 😁😉.
Looking forward to next year.
Ps.. best of luck to Richard with the trident 🤞
Cheers, Michael

Thank you Gareth and Graham from me too.
Especially as you supplied me with the full glamping experience! Sorry again that I was so involved with talking to my long lost friend, Fred, that I left you two to break camp and didn't help.
It was a very enjoyable weekend and you even organised the weather for a good ride home. Strangely I was riding for over 60 miles, from the A50, with another bike. He would pass me then a few miles later I'd pass him. The odd thing was that he was as thorough at observing speed limits as I am so we were never more than a few hundred yard apart. Eventually he pulled into a layby after Lincoln, so I stopped to find out where he was from. He was Max and had been at the show with the Bandit club and lives in Skegness! I will be contacting him.
All in all an odd but very enjoyable weekend.
Thank you as well, Gareth, for the lovely breakfasts and supply of food and Graham for the continuous supply of coffee and tea.
I will do more next show, I promise!
Anyone fancy the winter show? Camping in February! That would be fun for us softies who haven't done the Elephant!
Thanks also to Michael, Ian,John and Steve for the amazing banter and interesting bikes.
Cheers chaps
Richard

When everyone has had a chance to draw breath, any chance of a few pics? Pics of gravity-defying mudguards especially welcomed?😁

I'd just like to thank Ian, Michael, Steve, John, Richard and GC for a cracking weekend at Stafford - as always lots of visitors to the stand and a step closer to what appears to be normality. I will of course look to book for next year so keep the 1st/2nd weekend of October free. One of the highlights for me was the gravity defying mudguard - confused a lot of people and embarrassed some!!!!

If anyone has any interest in the other Shows then let me know - of course we can't do it without the loyal members who show their bikes, however we are always looking for new additions.

Take care all and look forward to catching up at the next show, wherever that may be!

Gareth

Thanks for the pics, Ian 👍 I always wondered what the TC stand looked like.

Yes thanks for popping the photos up Ian. I notice that the first one must have been taken before the “worlds first gravity defying mudguard “ made it’s appearance 🤣🤣😁

Dear All
Just had a notification from the covid app that I have had close contact on the 10th and need to get a PCR test. Did anyone else get a notification?

Morning Richard. No I’ve not been “pinged” not yet at least. Hopefully your test comes back negative. I assume you’ve had both your jabs

Thank you, just been for test.
I guess it wasn't on the stand then. My worry is that it might be my long lost friend Fred who I suspect may be vulnerable. Fingers crossed it isn't.
Cheers
Richard.
