who's going

Not me I'm afraid.
I've decided to do just a few shows this year, to concentrate on building my hotrod instead. See you there next year Dave.  ;)

Not us, we're going to the Woking hospice event on sunday.
Been to Billing a few times, I can't put my finger on it, but it's not one of my favourite events.

I've got nothing against the NSRA or their Billing event, though I have heard rumours about price increases & various changes due to the site changing hands since last year.
Can you post details of the Woking event please.

Got the East Anglia D Day Memorial Run on saturday and a club run on sunday, funeral monday afternoon and then collapsed in a heap on monday night.

anymore details of NRSA please  :) :)

Took me a minute to spot the mistake, (in the title).
NSRA = National Street Rod Association.

From the calendar -  Sat 4th & Sun 5th June

"Our first major hot rod show of the year, held at the Billing Aquadrome. Entertainment, trade stalls, saturday cruise, show 'n' shine car show for pre-1972 Hot Rods, Street Rods, and Customs; open to the public on Sunday."

So, if you're 'public', it looks like its Sunday only.

We look forward to another fun filled day and raising money for Woking Hospice."

 

Thanks Chris. Added to the events calendar.

i heard that the entry price had gone up. a mate goes up for the raleigh chopper event that is on the same weekend so we split the cost of travel etc. i was thinking of not bothering this year but i'll give it a try and see what its like.

and finally now that is low

it did seem quiet on the show field on sunday maybe this was due to events over the weekend. on the friday night/early sat morning 9 raliegh chopper bikes were stolen 7 were found dumped in the long grass but the 2 with 50cc bike engines weren't. also stolen at the same time were bbq's garden furniture and beer from fridges. apparently they thieving gits were disturbed whilst trying to lift a bike form the hotrod section but an alarm made 'em scarper. on the saturday a few of the chopper people left maybe put off by the events earlier. on saturday 2 people were racing each other on pushbikes when one of 'em went head on into a rod. so with all this the weekend for some was not good
