Looking forward to this event. Got my steering issues sorted on the Watercat, so may try a bit of towing.


For those that have not visted this club before. Really nice people, well laid out coarse and some smashing food.

Hi Mike,Poll and Steve,
     Can't make this one as we have a bike ride organised, hope you get good weather and a good turnout. We'll be over next month so see you all then.
        Regards, Pete. :-)) :-)) :-))

We won't be there either, we're on holiday and will also miss the next one as it clashes with a family wedding {:-{

You'll be very welcome always.

If you're bringing a big tug then I'd suggest you aim for the tug towing events, although there
is always the chance to try towing at Balne Moor :} :-))

Another great day at Balne Moor.


My first time around a steering coarse, my thanks to Roy for talking me through. Note to myself need to get a board on my transmitter to fix the coarse plan to.


Also tried Watercat out towing, need to rethink the Gog chain idea, but she pulled well.


Excellent food thanks to Alan And Jackie.


As always it was nice to chat with other members who are more than happy to share ideas.
