Going to use this thread to outline the retrobike plans for MM 2010. Stay tuned and come back often as plans unfold. Check the bottom of my thread for the team lists.

The Date

Friday 18th - Sunday 20th June 2010


The Camp

This year we plan to have one large camping area (if we can get there early enough to bagsy a good space ;) The camp will consist of the following

-Central marquee for leisure time, BBQs and sheltering from the scorching sun we are owed this year.
-Trackside supporters / heckling tent.
-Show tent / pit area (rather than having a stand in the main arena this year).
-Probably some tents

I have one on a 4 man team Guv. If you don't fancy a 4 maybe someone from a 10 is willing step up to a 4 man team?

Nice one Mark. Have you PM'd the illustrious Mr K??
 
i thought you were replacing linsay in the 10 as she double booked herself and can't join us now?

Possibly but I believe AN Other was lined up.

It'll all come out in the wash...

He's such a girl, I feel like i'd be wasting my time asking.

Seriuosly though if anyone wants a crack at a 4 man team please get in touch. It cost me £220 to enter a 4 man team and after 1 rider was forced to bail i'm now £55 out of pocket :shock:
