UKBEG members may be interested in this event which is being held at the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre, East Kirkby - where we hold our main event, Em's Day.

If there's enough interest we could organise special parking and possibly a discount on the expected admission charge of £9.00 per adult. Please let us know ASAP if you'd like to attend.

We've also invited our friends from the various Ducati clubs and we expect 20 to 30 Buell and Ducati motorcycles.

We hope to have a reserved parking area near the control tower.

I've managed to arrange a parking/display area adjacent to the control tower but not a discount on the admission charge, which has been confirmed as £9.00 for adults.

Wouldn't digging a tunnel under the perimeter fence be more in the spirit of things? ;) lOl lOl

I could be around for that ... just doing some diary juggling.

I do so wish that some kind soul would point out to the website editor at E Kirkby that there is no such word as "taxy" though .... it hurts my eyes every time I see it, and it spoils an otherwise superb organisation. :?

'Taxy' - I mentioned it to them when it first appeared on their web site and in their literature but it appears to have fallen on deaf ears.
