********************************************

The mighty Geoff Apps, the man behind the Cleland line of off road bicycles would like to share his insights, experiences and the inspirations behind his pioneering work

Geoff has been engineering and producing off road bicycles for over 40 years and his career is full of amazing events and incidents

Organising a venue is no problem but I'm based in Exeter which may not be so ideal, I've asked Geoff about this

- The man himself is a member on this very forum, which is a real testament to the credibility and usefulness of this forum

What I'd really like to gauge from this is the rough number of prospective attendees
 
Re: Geoff Apps wants to talk to us - in Person!

Tentatively but it really depends on where.

How about a visiting lecturer at the next Mayhem to give a more motivational speech than the berating Mr Edwards usually issues.
 
Re: Geoff Apps wants to talk to us - in Person!

From memory geoff lives up in the north east somewhere..?..He managed to get a lift up to one of the scotish rides.

IF geoff can make it to this national ride---> viewtopic.php?f=31&t=261757

Then, i'm sure the attendance and profile of the ride will make it worth his while. There are some members up there too, that could potentially give him a lift.. ;)
 
Re: Geoff Apps wants to talk to us - in Person!

I'd be interested, depending on the venue.

Geoff lives (unless he's moved) in the Scottish Borders, so I'm not sure why he'd want to make a presentation in the West Country.
 
Re: Geoff Apps wants to talk to us - in Person!

Geoff's visiting Uffculme this year, date TBC so Devon (as unlikely as it seems, nothing interesting ever happens here) Looks like the place
 
Re: Geoff Apps wants to talk to us - in Person!

Yup, think he has relatives down this way.
We were meant to meet up for a ride last time he was down, but managed to miss each other.
We should organise a ride as well as a talk :D
 
Re: Geoff Apps wants to talk to us - in Person!

Very interested subject to location... although you know that Cropton just makes so much sense... :D
 
Re: Geoff Apps wants to talk to us - in Person!

Absolutely! : Regarding a bit of trail action. Geoff has mentioned that and having an Aventura on hand for attendees to try out. It's got the potential to be pretty amazing

I've suggested the Blackdowns as they are so close to Uffculme, I've done a bit of sound engineering in the area so should be able to get a venue near Uffculme with no problems

Do you know the Blackdowns much?
 
Re: Geoff Apps wants to talk to us - in Person!

Never ridden in the blackdowns. Round here I ride Woodbury, Haldon, Dartmoor and occasionally the Quantocks.
