may I take this opportunity to thank Eddie & his family for the fantastic organisation at Abbotsholme, the principal of the school for allowing the event to happen, the Staff at abbotsholme for their excellent meals & the SOC (all the usual faces who makes these events happen) for the welcome they showed my two guest the Firkins brothers from Australia, they have been buzzing since they arrived in Ireland about the Gathering & the hospitality they received. I think the gathering & whole weekend has added a whole new dimension to the scott club both in terms of Friendships & prestige of the annual gathering. to all who failed to attend you missed a wonderful bike run on saturday, a fantastic meal on saturday night, an annual gathering with a wide & varied range of machinery, the usual slagging of anyone available & an autojumble which turned up a good selection of new & usable spares…………………..a motorbike club enjoying their bikes & most importantly friendships………..that is what motorbike clubs should be about !
Well done the Shermer family, Abbotsholme school & the SOC…….roll on 2010 !
