Online Update, August 08

Hello everyone and welcome to the second newsletter !!!

Well as you are well aware we have just had the monthly natter @ the Halfmoon......with a twist, thanks go to all involved in setting that one up,and to the kind people from the Halfmoon for letting it all happen (and the chap in the kitchen) !!!! I will add feedback here as and when it arrives.

Competitions !!!!!!! It has been mentioned in dispatches (Nick told me to do it) that the monthly web competition should rear it's head again, so this is going to be happening within the next few days. It will be along the lines of close up pictures of parts....you guess it first - you win, or of places...you guess it first - you win, depending on how I get on blagging them there will be prizes, some will be good prizes, some may be naff, we will have to wait and see, and fianally on this subject. . . . . my decision is final !!!

Feedback. Please keep your feedback on the club and it's activities coming in, we know it's been a bit slack on the trials and offroad events so far this year but this has been out of anyones control due to the weather turning both sites into a mire, new sites are hopefully going to be available in the not to distant future.

Could we remind all of you that it's membership renewal time !! these funds are what pay for the MSA affiliation & Insurance for the club.....One of the main benefits membership brings is cheaper events !!!!

As you all may know.... the weather ruined any plans for the Steam Fair !!! But those of us who went across the border to Wales had a good few days laning - some of the lanes and routes we followed where pretty special ! one thing we did notice was that there wasnt a shortage of sheep.......or trees in certain areas.......or reservoirs. Between us we took hundreds of piccies, some of which are on Flickr.

 You may have noticed that the next trial is on the 31st and we hope that as many people as possible turn out for this one.

A word from the General

Hi folks,  just a short note we have come so far now with regular laning sessions and our first event at Haldon woods not forgetting the excellent time at Torbay steam fair  and what a good start we’ve had.

There has also been some new faces on the scene that is pleasing to see, but as a club we need to pull together and keep the momentum up. It doesn’t matter how daft it sounds, run it by us, send a letter to Nick for the website with any ideas or photo, or if you just fancy a 'get together' (thinking session) as we need input to keep it all going.

Hi, I would like to say thank you for all the people who turn up on sunday for our trial . As you know the day went well and every body seamed to get around the sections with out any damage unless your the owner of a white disco {nick} and got a brother that likes hammers!
I was pleased with the facted that every one got around and most people got a clear {0} which made all the members happy,
and as for me no broken landy``but muddy o yes lovely mud.
and as for the hicup after dinner well it was nice to see everybody working so well together and things being done in the right way !
So thank you everybody and ill see you all very soon
