Its all going well!

We're well ahead on organising this years meeting at Lumb Farm.

If you've never been before here's the brief -

500 folk camping at a pub - Travel shows and presentations/demonstrations on a huge range of topics all to do with travel and biking - going on all day every day - rideouts to the scenic Derbyshire countryside - around a dozen trade stalls - and a fantastic atmosphere.
Around half of the folk have done a trip of some kind - the other half have come to gather some info before their own trip. (And with so many redundancies does this mean its going to be a bumper year for folk heading off.)

This is now THE national event for travellers in its 8th year and still growing.

The pubs made some changes to the campsite - new fencing and a bit of concrete here and there. It looks very good and much improved.

On the presenters front - we're still looking for some! We have some old favourites from previous years that fill out the rooms every year no matter what they talk about. We're still waiting for a few to confirm, as well as some new faces (always nice) we're just over half full (for presenters) so if you're thinking of presenting then don't just think - do it. It will be fun! And you couldn't have a better audience...

A list of speakers and presenters is on the website. The timetable will be on the website a few weeks before the event. Hopefully around the end of May.

Attendance will be limited to around 500 people again this year - it sold right out a month before last year. We've sold 300 tickets to date, up on this time last year, so it will sell out again this year
If you book before the end of March it'll only cost you £35.00. One form per person please.

Details of the rideouts will be posted nearer the time.

Author and general all round good egg, Sam Manicom organises the 60 volunteers needed to run such a big event and does an excellent job. He's still looking for a few volunteers mainly to man (lady?) the gate and sort any problems with the digital projectors/laptops etc. If you can help in any way please contact Sam through this website or on the booking form, under volunteers.

Questions Anyone?
