Certainly be interested, if there's a place for an old cx500 trike. Bit rough round the edges ( middles not much better) but slowly getting improved. Bit of an oldie just like me.  Bring it in doesn't matter what it looks like. its yours and paid for so come on down. more trikes the better  Excellent. And reading up about last years, seems that a supply of cake is equally important Oh yes Jaffa cake and jam doughnuts and if you got one a large gazebo |

Right, as usual, I'm completely disorganised.
The entry form for our pitch has to be in by the end of March. That gives us about 2 weeks to come up with a list of who's going.
I've spoken to one of the organisers today & all they need is your name, vehicle type, (Reliant trike for example), registration number & the name of your insurance company if you have it -as always we welcome unfinished projects cos the public are always interested to see the "behind the scenes" bit of building a vehicle, & obviously you won't have a registration number or insurance for those.
The show's held in the War Memorial Park in Basingstoke, Hants, about a mile from junction 6 of the M3, 30 miles West of London.
Around 900 vehicles on show, from motorcycles to buses to traction engines to cars of all types -& us.
If you've been before you'll know we're never organised. We turn up, park the vehicles in a vague semblance of order, struggle with a gazebo, then sit about, eating cake & generally making the place look untidy.
If you'd like to join us, you'd be very welcome. If you've got something half built that vaguely resembles a custom or classic vehicle, bung it in a van or on a trailer & bring it along. It's a good excuse to put faces to forum names & check out everyone's projects in the flesh. No entry fee & the possibility of free cake -who could resist.
You'll need to be at the park for around 8.30 ish so we can sort out the parking, (the show officially starts at 11, but as there's no gates & it's free entry, people begin arriving earlier), & we'd like you to stay till the end, which is 4.30 - 5pm, so we don't get gaps in our display if people leave early.
If you can genuinely make it on Sunday the 10th of May, add your name to the list please.

Right chaps, we've got less than a week to get this sorted. Are we having a pitch this year or has it run it's course now? It's getting harder & harder to find dates when everyone's free to do these things & 6 of us isn't really enough to make it worthwhile. Have we reached the end of the line with this one or is there a large contingent out there who just haven't gotten around to putting their names down yet? I'm happy either way, but need to know so I can let the organisers know.

Does T.M.S mean Twisted Monkey Spanner Titan trike. That would look great on the registration document.
