[QUOTE="BlackLightning998, post: 5187, member: 109"] [b]Written to the VMCC[/b] Evening All, Having been to the Festival last year, ridden on track and had a great time I was shocked and bitterly disappointed with the set up this last weekend - Mallory clearly was not ready for the event and you could see the huge raw earth works all around. The Avenue of Clubs was cramped, squashed and disorganised, the Riders Paddock was a quagmire of mud, the food vans approaching third world and virtually no sign of staff to clear up and re-stock toilets and showers Saturday through Sunday. I've written to James Hewing, CEO of the VMCC to let him know my thoughts. Perhaps other likeminded people could do the same to influence next years choice of venue, or at least quality of preparation and organisation. It can't be the only track venue which will host the event and charge the VMCC a reasonable sum? His contact details are [email]jameshewing@vmcc.net[/email] I went to Goodwood Festival of Speed on Friday - now they really know how to organise an event........ Stuart (PS Suffolk Rally would have been fun Len - but it didn't have 1000 bikes I guess) [/QUOTE]
