We had a stand at the inaugural show last year and it was very good: spacious halls, busy but not crowded and plenty of friendly faces. I won't be able to attend this year but it will be well worth a visit.

We have a stand again this year, and with a couple of copies of the Motociclismo 80th anniversary colour supplements that feature the history of Morini available it's worth seeking us out!!

See you there?

Great bikes on the stand. The Camel could have done with a wash! :)

Nice to meet some members I've never met before. Also some potential ones. The cut away engine was a great way to explain the internals. Must check out the run what you brung hill climbs and sprints.

Chris and Les put on a well laid out club stand , shame the rest of the show wasn't up to much it just didn't have the small traders there like last year .
Plenty of shiny stuff and quite a few show ponies , I didn't realise that Rewaco trikes are classics now :wink:
Well done Chris and Les

Thank you for those kind works, the cheque is in the post.
Until we arrived on site on the Friday afternoon we had no idea of the location, size or shape of the stand.
Setting up was certainly a challenge but thanks to members allowing us to display their prized Morinis it all worked.
Meeting members we don't often see is also an interesting element.
As for the Camel, I think because it was getting on in years incontinence may have been the problem, the back end was certainly a mess.
