This has traditionally been a big day out for the Monsterists in Wiltshire, Hampshire and beyond.

Is anyone planning on going this year, and do we have a pitch?

Liz and I will have the also traditional all Ducatis welcome stand, we'll be right in the centre of town adjacent to the traffic lights (there is only one set) so not hard to find.
I do fully intend this year to go for a walk and see the umpteen variety of bikes that attend the event, I always seem to end up yacking all day on the stand.
See you all there! :mand:

Me too, though I'll be in the naughty corner as the Elefant is only half Ducati.

It's looking to be damp in the afternoon, so I'll be looking to arrive at the Ducati stand about 10:00, have a look around, then push off around noon.

See you there!

Battery [Was] charged, idiot lights come on nice and bright, solenoid goes click nice and clearly, but nothing else happens.
So it's off with the bodywork, out with the multimeter and see how far the voltage gets.
Hopefully it's the solenoid, cables and/or connections as starter motors are a bit dearer.....?

For those who haven't been, this is an amazing event. Well worth going.
Sadly I have too much outside work and not enough dry weather available ��
Have a good day guys.
