He he... I need new tyres after the drive home anyway! Although those that noticed my wheel combination have probably guessed right in so far as one set gone already! Although i also need a new exhaust after the drive home too but we wont go there...

If I remember correctly I dont think weekdays were ruled out in light of the fact that the alternative is to arrange a weekender to Angelsey which is much more inconvenient and expensive. Also a 35%discount over weekend costs is very tempting.

Hmmmm, that's a shame. The only other real option is Kirkistown... and it's a bit too far to tow a car for a few laps. 

Tynagh in Galway would be fun... but it's too slippy and is too small for the amount of traffic you'd get at a BDD.

May have to go down the VIP trackday road... if they'll have me!

Apparently Mondello have no weekend dates available so the committee are looking into alternative tracks. Seemingly their own track days (both VIP & open) are being held on weekdays.

Ger and all,

Well done on organising the AGM, hopefully Ross can transfer the points across to the UK and no doubt we all eagerly await for the response from over there.

good seeing you all and talk soon.

Thanks to Ger, Brendan and Kevin for chairing the meeting.

Many thanks also to Ross for making the trip from the UK.  TBH, he seems like a decent guy, and listened to our gripes wihlst contributing to the meeting as a whole.

Several mentions were made re events in 2006, and trying to set up a calander of events for 2007 (we forgot to mention Bens remapping/rolling road day, btw!)

Was great to see a few new bodies there, with new people not being afraid to contribute their ideas.  Nice to get a fresh viewpoint.

I'm sure that one of the top table will be along soon enough with minutes for those who couldn't make it.
