Couple of motorcycles loaded in a hire van, along with banners, a box of MMMotors T shirts & stickers & a couple of camping chairs. Could probably do with some sort of camping table if anyone has one.
I've got entry tickets so if you're bringing a vehicle along & the marshals don't wave you through as they normally do, give me a shout & I'll nip up to the gate with one. I'll aim to be there by 9. Everyone to be onsite by 10.30 absolute latest. We've got less vehicles than usual, so if you fancy bringing something unusual along, just turn up & join us. The show runs from 10.30 ish - 5ish. Free entry, with £2 parking. S'posed to be a lovely day tomorrow so come on down  Wink
Oh yeah, this year's trophy. We always throw something together at the last minute then decide who to give it to on the day, usually for enthusiastic support of the whole modified vehicle scene. As was suggested last year, this year's bling's been officially designated the Markju Memorial Trophy, in memory of former forum member Mark Juggins, who died of cancer 7 months ago. We're starting to forget who's already received one, so I'm throwing it open to you lot. Tell me who deserves it. Ideally someone who'll be there tomorrow, but if not, I'm happy to deliver it to the worthy recipient. Suggestions please, (PM me if you'd rather do it anonymously, but do it this evening). I'll email this photo to Mark's widow, just to prove we kept our promise.
See you bright 'n' early tomorrow chaps.  Grin

I've shoved a couple of tables in the car - just small ones.

Trophy looks good Andy. Tattoos look good too. Whose arm was that?

Did my shopping tonight so bought a big tray of doughnuts, a treacle tart and some mini choc rolls so that should help feed us. I did stress to the checkout lady that they weren't all for me. That's why I'm telling you now so I don't get tempted. Embarrassed

Doughnuts !
I will be there.
Sans trike unfortunately but with a late 70s trail bike. Feel a bit of a fraud as it's not exactly customised but it's the best I can manage at the mo. Sad
The well inked arm and grubby fingers belong to  'lunatic'. Smiley

Finally home after returning various motorcycles & vans & putting everything away. Absolutely shattered now. Partly the walking about & chatting all day but mostly the blazing heat -good job BikerGran & Chris's Dad brought gazebos so we had somewhere to shelter from the sun & eat cake.
I'll go through my photos tomorrow & post them here -did anyone else take any? -but for now, a huge heartfelt thank you to everyone who made the effort. Very proud of you all. Grin
Hope I managed to chat to everyone. I tried to say Goodbye to as many as I could. I had a great day, as always, & hope you did too. Thank you.

Oh & this year's trophy went to Lunatic Senior, who's 1928 model A Ford didn't quite make it the 3 miles across Basingstoke, leaving him waiting for his motor to cool down before limping home again, (condenser trouble).

Same time, same place next year chaps?

Yeah he broke down just about where I did the year my trike clutch cable went ping!

I took a few pics of the bikes and cars on the MMM stand - didn't phot anything else - it's always too much of a problem to know what NOT to phot!

Another great show where we got to meet up with fellow monkeys. Thanks Andy.
Jeez it was hot and I'm sure that some will be suffering from sunburn. Many thanks to Jay Jay and BG and anyone else who brought cakes and drinks to share. Much apreciated. No pic's from me as I forgot the camera this year. Do'h!

Yep,what Olds said it was good to meet up and talk to old and new monkeys, i haven't spoken to Goose, Clive or Lunatic before, nice to meet you all.
Thanks Andy and co for putting it all together, still a good show of vehicles for the pitch and somewhere for us monkeys to gather. Wouldn't be the same without the pitch, once again thanks Andy for getting it all together.

 Smiley What a great day, my first wonder round the rally I was greeted by a chap with a long beard like my own he was exhibiting a steam roller, his words were Manky Monkey Motors having read this on my t shirt, I always go on that site to look at the photos, just goes to show we are looked at by the outside world.
Good to meet and have a chat with fellow Monkeys thank you all for making it a great day Smiley Kiss
