Re:

so in essence its just moving venue next year. I think this has to do with the corporates are now involved and wanna make it more corpratfied which aint a bad thing even though pat does a brilliant amazing job every year things evolve and pat can't do it all on his own now.

thanks andy

Re:

Nobbies right, we might need to find a new home for our annual gathering but according to the website
(see below) there will be an event next year but what it looks like and how attractive it is, remains to be seen.

see closing few lines below.... could be the start of something REALLY good (evolution*...and all that)



*something that most on Retro bike fail to acknowledge happens (by enlarge)
