Hi,

Don't forget its club night on Tuesday 27th August at Ripley.

Derek will be giving a demo on how to set up your suspension, please arrive for 7-30 start as it gets dark earlier these days. Derek will be demonstrating the basic set ups for setting the sag, and front and rear rebound & damping. This will help you get the best from your bike.

Come down on the bike, it should still be nice and warm for a ride out into the countryside.

Hi, Derek has spoken to the Legion and we can have the demo indoors, so we will be starting at 8-30.

See you all Tuesday

Not all that sure about taking a bike into the Legion. It is a clean tidy well looked after club who have made us very welcome, is this not abusing their hospitality.

I did go and check with them and they are fine with. I will make sure the floor is protected. Of course we won't be running the engine - just demo of the basic settings.

Toughen up princess!

[Billy]

Sorry muddeee just my opinion which counts to no one but me, but when we do the demo in your front room I will come and watch but I personally think taking a bike into the legion is not on. As I say, just my opinion.

Draining the fuel tank might be a wise move, but other than that I see no issues, bikes are generally sold from indoor premises with the public milling around.
Method statement, risk assessment, cosh, assessment , toolbox talk yea right.

We've had bikes in SDMCC clubhouse many times; lay some dust sheets down so you don't leave any muck and put a bit of ply under the stand so you don't dink the floor and I can't see there being any problem. I suppose you could have a couple of fire extinguishers handy just to show you have covered that risk but there isn't one really.

We had Patsy Quick's Dakar bike in a few years ago and it damaged the ceiling (she fired it up and the up-turned exhausts blew the tiles up through the grid)

Obviously just me then. Still can`t understand why anyone would think it ok to take a dirty,smelly dirt bike into a nice clean club. If you wanted a sh##hole that didn`t give a f##k we should have stayed at Nescott.
The time for this type of demonstration was summer and outside in the car park.

Steve, you're getting all posh again,
and I think Simon keeps his bike in his house sometimes?

So its 8:30 start then is it?
