Popham Mega meet.

Post by Interpol2471 »

Hi all,Myself and Tag (Roy) Allison are trying to get a stand together for the Popham Mega Meet on the 22nd August so we would like to know of interested people to come and show off their Rotary of any type.This is probably one of the biggest motorcycle meets in the country now and is really worth the ride down for the day. We are looking at having a banner made or borrowing one from the Club if it is available and setting up a rotary display of all sorts including a dummy turning engine. We need to know rough numbers for the size of stand area we require as we are booking this now in advance so please any members are welcome. The link for this meeting is http://www.popham-airfield.co.uk/Motorc ... .htmCheers Paul

I have the club banner (and a sectioned RE5 engine to demonstrate 'wankellism') and will get them over to my folks in Camberley for you - probably later this month. DC

Hi there again, we have good news we expect a DKW and a Rotary speedway bike to be on the stand at the show and I have now got 18 free passes to get in. It will cost £5 for bikes under 30 years old so most Rotary's but with these passes it is free. If you send me your details you will be posted out a free pass and a letter on the event.

Yes I have noted it in the diary, I'll be there on my Norton, now that it is running better since carb blockage. I also have various molyd engine plates in various condition and a rotor and a crankshaft for a display.It is looking like we could get a good number of Rotary's on the day which is great, the more the merrier. Paul and I went last year and it was an enjoyable day out, there is always lots of things to see and meeting up with like minded people is always good. Look forward to seeing you all there. David

There was a flyer placed in the ROC Mag this month also to Contact Roy Allison for Popham tickets so you can write to him direct also if you want or get the tickets thru myself as above via email. They are the same tickets so no problem just say that they are thru the ROC website, I am the web advertiser for the event while Roy does the hard graft wink

Thanks to everyone that supported the ROC at Popham and I think it can be said that we all had a good day with thousands of other bikes. Popham for those that did not attend is now becoming the one event not to miss with just about every marque on display. I will post the pictures on the Gallery and send them on for the Club Mag for the write up that Roy will be doing.A big thank you to Roy for the tea and again to everyone for the fantastic turn out.Here's looking forward to next year, so any ideas on more we can do please let me know but lets make it twenty bikes too Very Happy

A 200 mile round trip for me and very well worth it. Much better than the local shows around my way - the knebworth show has gone from mediocre to rubbish in 4 swift years.I second the thanks to Roy for the organistion and for splitting my ears with the grass tracker! Nice to put some faces to names to. Even the weather was on the side of the righteous so all in all an enjoyable day.Johnny
