Bomber Command/East Kirkby weekend 12/13 May 2018

[CrazyFrog]

I'm intending to go up on the Friday, so I'll stick around at the campsite Saturday morning and wait for anybody who's intending to camp Saturday night. I'll either be on my Silver MZ Rotax, or blue Jawa. If there's any change of plan I'll post it on here.

If there are folk turning up early doors and setting up camp on the Saturday morning Tim, do you think it would be wise to offer the landlady an extra couple of quid as a sweetner?

East Kirby is definitely open that saturday, from 09:30 to 5:00. Entry is £8.50, and parking is free. I suggest we leave the Coach and Horses for 11:00 to allow anyone time who wants to pitch up on saturday morning. Then meet at East Kirby for 11:30 for those turning up there. Yes Pete, you are right, as its a bit cheeky putting a tent up early saturday morning so a couple of quid extra seems right. Sunday, we will pack up and head over to Bomber Command in Lincoln, and then disperse afterwards.
I hope these arrangements suit ok. I will head over friday afternoon, but thanks Mark for the offer.

I Have noted Bomber Command center on the 13th is a specific bike day and entrance in advance is £10 per bike. Can this be paid on arrival?

Ok, I wasnt aware of that. Ill look into it, or we can just wing it

The bike ride in to Bomber Command looks like quite a big do. So I reckon if you definitely know you are going, book a ticket online as Trevor has done above, just to be on the safe side. Thats me booked. Go to IBCC website, and follow the link on the Events page

So you are going Saturday and Sunday? The charity ride thing for a tenner is on the Sunday according to that website.

I am a complete to55er.... just realised that I am ( and have been for several months) booked on a cycling event which starts 1st thing sunday morning, local to me, and grandsons are doing it with me, so no way I can cry off.... sorry, but i'll have to give the TC club meeting and the Lancaster a miss this time.

Guzzi Steve, we are doing East Kirby on the Saturday, then Bomber Command bike event in Lincoln on the Sunday. with the option of friday and/or saturday night camping at Hemingby. I will phone the landlady of the Coach and Horses this evening just to let her know we are still coming. She doesnt need numbers, so just turn up whenever suits

Safe journeys everyone, and look forward to seeing a few of you over the weekend

Hope to see you at the Coach and Horses in the morning. Hope to arrive about 10-30 so as to pitch my tent etc before the ride to East Kirby.

From Timbos earlier post he has suggested we meet at East Kirby for 11:30.
