OK folks, once again it's time to look to your hearts and the deeper recesses of your garage and come up with any unused, unloved or unwanted tat that I can persuade drunkards to buy at our annual Sproutfest auction.
For those who have no clue as to what I'm talking about, see Alison's thread or the events section.
Historically, the auction has always been the main source of income for the Club, which believe it or not, actually costs money to run! Webspace, ISPs etc. all take chunks of cash from our funds.
These days, we are fortunate enough to have members who donate hard earned cash to support the Club (for which we are extremely grateful
![worthy :worthy:](./images/smilies/notworthy.gif)
) but the Auction still helps to keep the balances the right side of the thin Red line.
What I need is any Buell related items, or general motorcycle items from clothing to heated grips, bling, cleaning products, oils or anything that may persuade people to part with cash!!
Non motorcycling items are also welcome, especially as Buell merchandise is getting thin on the ground these days. Again, historically, we've unloaded everything from books to guitars.
If you happen to have Kylie's golden hot pants in your drawer, I'll sell them too.
If you got married recently and found that you were given three toasters, I'll take one off ya and sell it!
All auction items will be sold, in the room, on the night, so it's a good excuse to get hold of Alison and book the meal. It's a fun night out, with the Awards thrown in as well, so do join us there.
You can get stuff to me by post, or using the Club network (Begger post

) or at a pub meet, or you can bring it along on the day (We start drinking at lunchtime
![dance :dance:](./images/smilies/bananadance.gif)
) but what is important is that you let me know what you are donating before the day, so that I can get organised.
PM what you have and we'll sort it out.
If you cannot make it to Sproutfest, or do not have any auction items, but would still like to support the Club, send a PM to Alison and she will help you to rid yourself of some cash.
We pride ourselves here, that this Club is free to join, free to participate in and free to extract help, advice and technical knowledge from.
There are no pop up adverts here and we answer to no one with regard to content (within legal and Club rules) and long may it continue.
Finally, once again, I'd like to thank all those who donate funds to maintain this Club website.
You know who you are, thank you.
