HI all
Watching this with great interest, as an area rep for a club in the UK I
would recommend not trying to meet up at the GP or SCCA or etc etc as there
will be little time for the Triumph thing with everyone having paid big
bucks to see the GP etc etc.
Just my tuppence from experience.
Also ten years ago the TSSC IoW area launched a camping weekend on a bank
holiday weekend (3 days), four years in it was thought to be getting stale
and they tried to cancell it, there was much uproar about this and the
threat that if it wasn't done by the locals it would be taken over by a
mainland area, it is now approaching year eleven and going from strength to
strength with a local area of about 20 with about half that active!!


Graham.
