The Place

In order to raise some much needed funds for our racing this year, my new passenger Kerry and I have put together a few prizes. You could win one of the following: (first winner chooses, then second and third winner gets the one left over)

A week’s stay for a couple, at Gites de Laprade in the beautiful countryside of the Haute Vienne, Limoges, France, worth £425, courtesy of Brian and Taunya Smith (Kerry's mum) www.gitesdelaprade.com Limoges is only an hour from a great trail riding area around Correze.

Two nights bed and breakfast accommodation for up to 4 persons in scenic Mid Wales worth £240 www.ride-adventure.co.uk/bedandbreakfast.html

A bike and clothing for a day's trail or road riding, worth £180 (please note that this day is suitable for road or novice trail riders, not experienced offroad riders) www.trailrides-wales.com

The draw will take place on Bank Holiday Monday 4th May. We are asking for a donation of £10 for each entry, and so far only 8 people have entered, so the odds at the moment are very good!

If you wish to enter, pm me, email marianne@trailrides-wales.com or phone me on 01686 430522.

hi, what a good idea, put me and Karen down for an entry each, let me know where to send the £'s, good luck with the racing. Cheers Steve.

I can vouch for the the beautiful Limoge area im moving there full time in September Please put me in for two tickets.

Please post how we can pay

I'll give Marianne your money next week Phil, you can give it to me on Monday at Darley and I'll take it to Aintree on Wednesday.

Thank you to all who entered. The winners are Dan Jones who has first choice, Wilf Mulliner who has second choice, Steve Peake with third choice and Michael Gunkel who has the prize which is left over.

Forty-nine persons entered, giving us £620 for improving the sidecar. Not sure yet what the priorities are, but probably want to improve set up. We will keep in touch with everyone via our Facebook page Two Fast Ladies. It is Kerry’s first outing as a passenger this Wednesday at Aintree. Hope it doesn’t rain too hard!

Anyone notice something quite important in one of these replies?

Value of prizes significantly exceeded value of entries?

Dooo! Come on you clasic sidecar racers, there is an very important message in there for all of you people who race in the clasic sidecar club (who use a certain make of outfit.) that is if you care, or are you just burying your heads in the sand, or is it just plain apathy?. (The curse of most sidecar racers.) I cannot believe that no one has noticed or commented on it it except me. I am not going to tell you what it is, because if I can see it with my dodgy eyesight, you people at half my age or more, should have spotted it immediately. It took me from Friday untill Tuesday to see it. Doooo! I give up.

Whoops I got my days mixed up, should have said Friday to Monday, shows how old and senile I am. So what about the rest of you?
