A last chance this year to see some racing on the UK's most challenging road circuit   See bikes and sidecars racing at close quarters on a track not much wider than a garden path in places   The previous meeting at Olivers Mount in Scarborough was electrifying   Great spectator vantage points so close to the action you could almost reach out and touch the riders ( pics on events 21/22 July, "Cock o the North" )   Get your names down folks for a not to be missed, never forgotten experience                                                                                                                                                                               

I have my ticket, including paddock, and wouldn't miss this

Bring it


                                                                                                                                                                             

  Nice one Emma   I knew we could count on you   Lets just hope it's as good as the last one eh ?                                                                                                                                                                              

B.U.M.P

Hey Bandito,

So looking forward to seeing you there, what a treat.
Last time we got tickets at the gate, no problem.
I only bought mine in advance this time so I could check out the paddock, which I've never done before.

Emm xxx                                                                                                                                                                             

Thanx Bill - will have a word with him - he might get me some freebees lol. Emm - the treat will be all mine - be lovely to see you there                                                                                                                                                                               

Hi folks,

I will be there on the Sunday, but in the car, but at least I will get to see the racing.  

Been a while since I was there last, but I doubt its changed.   

I just love climbing up Cardiac Hill!  Why can't they make the steps even heights? sometimes I need a step ladder to get up one of them. LOL                                                                                                                                                                             

 Barbara,  I know exactly what you mean.

I will PM you with my number so we don't miss you,

x                                                                                                                                                                             

Looking forward to meeting some of you in person, and you're welcome to put your gear in my car if you want. 

Think my son is coming along as well, will do him good.                                                                                                                                                                              

See you there Barbara - I have Emmas number so will be in touch with her when we get there. Lets hope for some decent weather                                                                                                                                                                              

  This is on the events calendar also (same date)     Listed as :-   Gold Cup Road Race - N.Yorks   Anyone wanting to meet up with other BMers   I will be there at 11.30 (approx) at the "Meer hairpin" (watching sidecar practice )   Any alternative suggestions for a meeting place     Can be posted here in the forum    Or you can PM me your MOB number and I'll be in touch on the day   Looks like we should have a good turnout   Lets hope the weather is kind to us                                                                                                                                                                               

Supposed to be a bit cloudy and around 17 degrees but hey its Oliver's Mount, its always a bit chilly up there. 

Been there when we couldn't tell if it was foggy or just low cloud lol. 

Emzed - glad someone else likes  the sidecars. Dave used to race one and wanted to do it again with me as passenger, yeh right I'm not that stupid.  Good to watch though.                                                                                                                                                                             

  It'll be good to see you there Barbara     I'm a confirmed sidecar freak   You don't have to be mad to race an outfit   But it can help   Outfit riders will race in conditions that solo riders won't   So if it's a bit "foggy" at least we'll get to see "some" racing    The July meeting was held in glorious sunshine both days   Same again please, weather gods                                                                                                                                                                               

I will be there at 11.30 (approx) at the "Meer hairpin"   Is that on the saturday or sunday?                                                                                                                                                                             

  That'll be BOTH days XK   A plan has "evolved" to hold a "mini" gathering at my place Saturday night   Friday night is available for those wanting to get here early and set up   Setting off from my place about 10.30 am   We should all be back from the racing by 7 pm at the latest   So it'll be Barby on and Party on     Room in the garden for a few tents (maybe a dozen)    And "some" indoor space on a first come first served basis   PM me if you're coming so I can make your "reservation"   Sunday breakfast courtesy of the butty van   Then back to Scarborough about 10.30 am for round two                                                                                                                                                                                     

I can't go on Sunday now thanks to work not letting me swap a shift but im off up for the day on sat if anybody needs a ride up let me know pillion seat is spare, i shall be going from Lincoln over humber bridge beverley brid etc if not maybe see ya up there :-)

I hope you all have a great time this weekend, I'm sure you shall.

My plans have changed so I won't be there, sadly.

Enjoy x                                                                                                                                                                             

    As I mentioned in the chat room last night   Anyone wanting chicken on the barby   Does so entirely at their own risk   I will not be responsible for any "iffy" tummy's on Sunday   So folks, you have been warned   Suffice to say I'll not be partaking of any thankyou   But you are welcome to cook whatever you fancy   Party on
