Today....

Post by MacV2 »

...I had a visit from Malc O'Popkat & family.

We had some business to conclude re some parts & a few more bits were pecured for the VFR/Storm hybrid racer.

Whilst chatting we discussed the possability of DevonStorm 2017...Now Malc is not sure he will be able to do it this year due to work, family hols & racing his VFR/Storm hybrid but might make it a biannual affair from now on...ie 2018 & 2020 ect...


However after he left it got me thinking that as it has been so much fun the last two years we could book up the chalets again anyway...I'm sure between us we can find some fun roads to ride...

Your thoughts ?

That's a shame Pops but totally understandable. You can't do it all, all the time. It's one of my favourite rideouts so if we can keep it on the Callander and not loose it entirely I'll still be happy to support it when it happens.
I might have to pop down anyway and tap you up for a 15k service if you are willing at sometime in the summer. So you won't be shot of me.
