it in, 2016 Squres meet

 

The date for the 2016 gathering has been agreed with Squires, its going to be the weekend of 9th, 10th, and 11th September.

That weekend avoids a clash with the IOM classic TT and just about keeps to our traditional slot of early September.

I reckon the format will be identical to this year which seemed to be big success.... Friday night in the Café for a few beers ,Saturday rideout, Saturday evening in the Bar for beer and banter, then another ride on the Sunday...

We will be doing a flyer and promoting it a bit later on but get it in your diaries now!!

Hey, I remember a place called squires, I went there a few years back and met a fine bunch of lads who were all good crack.

I must go again, so maybe this could be the year

:D

Well I'm planning on several overnights next year, already have some plans in mind for some hard luggage for the TDR.

First trip will be easter at least. may be earlier if spring shows early. Will def be at squires though, kind of the Law now eh.

I'm thinking of lightweight, 3mm ply with a 1mm ally skin and ally angle to construct the boxes, then use 20x40 thin wall steel box for the main bearers shaped so they support the boxes from below.

I'm aiming for light, (small ammo boxes are 15kg apiece) and deformable (ammo boxes are not!). It would be disastrous to have the bike fall over and damage the rear sub frame that isn't that substantial. I would sooner the paniers are sacrificed.

Need to do a dozen other things first mind....:rolleyes:
