26th International West Kent Run
October Update (3rd October 2009)
(Archive of past Updates)
Entries are already coming in for the event next August.
We shall only accept 350 riders next year so enter quickly. (This year we had
480 riders)
If you want a room at the Friars you should also book early.
We would like to see more pre 1940 motorcycles. The older the better.
We are looking for local members to help with the organisation of the event. There are many activities that a small group could organise.
For example -
Preparing, cooking and serving the food at the Thursday barbecue.
Signing on and signing off the participants.
Distributing the souvenir pennants on Sunday.
Selling the T shirts.
Helping on the gate on Sunday.
Organizing and assisting at the awards presentation.
Assisting with the preparation of the marquee for its various roles.
If you would like to assist with these, or in any other way, please contact Ron Wright. He will be very pleased to hear from you. As they say 'many hands make light work.' We have a hard working team of volunteers who assist on the days before and after the event but there are always other opportunities. Most of these jobs are self-contained and would not require attendance at regular committee meetings.
Ron Wright can be contacted by phone on 01622-812771 or by letter at
'Fairmile', Forge Lane, West Peckham. Maidstone ME18 5JP
Best Wishes from Alan Abrahams and the West Kent Run Committee.
