Ok guys, the dust has settled ,and we can now announce Sunday's activity.
We have a pitch booked at the Imperial War Museum,Duxford, for their spring car show ( bikes are welcome) under the UKMOC.
The show is held inside the museum's ground around the main hangers, over 1000 entrants are expected on the day!
There is a reduced entrance fee from£19.00 to £13.00. This includes entrance to the museum for the day.
To participate in the day, either with the ride in from Sharnbrook, or to join in at Duxford, please apply for your ticket via the attached link, go to car shows and enter the promo code SCS18.
https://www.iwm.org.uk

I have also copied part of the mail sent to my by the museum outlining how to purchase your tickets.

How to book tickets.
1. Visit the What’s on page at https://www.iwm.org.uk
2. Book tickets
3. Enter the Promo Code:SCS18
4. Follow the on screen prompts
5. Download tickets
6. Email duxfordcorporate@iwm.org.uk with your eticket to obtain a vehicle display permit.
7. Bring your tickets and vehicle display permit with you on the day.



I live locally, so hopefully the route I'm planning to travel to Duxford will be part of a great day out. Personally I've been visiting Duxford for over 30 years and feel it's one of the best ' living' aircraft museums in the world.
I would anticipate leaving Sharnbrook at approx 9.30am on the Sunday aiming to arrive at Duxford for around 10.30am.Those who are joining us for the
day, please plan arriving at least 15mins before hand.
As the hotel has offered to lay on a barbeque in the late afternoon,plus we have the annual judging plus award ceremony, I would aim to leave the show no later than 4pm. If we come back the quick route, travel time is approx 40mins.
Once your ticket is booked, please add your name to the list I've started in another thread.

Here's to a great weekender!

I am not 100% sure I can make the Sunday yet, but if I can, it'll probably be a last minute decision, will I be able to get a ticket on the day/day before?

The museum has asked for ticket purchases to be completed by Friday the 4th of May.

According to your tag line Grumpy you can save the entry fee by just not buying a ticket (ever again for anywhere)

The tickets are available up to the friday, not on the day. You would be welcome to ride to Duxford with us, parking would be in the public car park, not in the museum, plus the standard entry fee of £19.00 not the reduced amount of £13.00 to show attenees.

There's still time to join in Sundays run to Duxford.
I've reserved space for 30 bikes, so there is room for more !
If you have never been to the IWM @ Duxford, it's a living museum, a great day out, with the added bonus of a classic car show.

Hi guys, newbie to the club. Looking to join you at Duxford on Sunday, got my ticket and vehicle pass via the link. ��

We have a dedicated area within the museum. Come in via gate 1, which is the opposite side of the airfield from the M11 junction. This gate is for exhibitors only.

Guys,

So spent this evening getting the bike nice and ready for tomorrow and had a go at tackling my rear light which I felt was not quite sitting right. Think I have been a bit too aggressive with it and sure I heard something snap.

Anyway... long and short of it is my brake light is stuck on. I am 90% certain it is something to do with the bulb connection/housing as that is what I was being too heavy handed with.

Massive long shot but if anyone going to Sharnbrook tomorrow for the ride to Duxford has a spare rear light unit for a 2003 shape Monster I'd be massively grateful. Don't mind risking it first thing on way to Sharnbrook but no way I can ride all day with no brake light.

This is a proper 11th hour thing so I don't have much hope but if anyone can help it would be amazing.

Apologies in advance for posting across threads but just want to increase my chances :)

Smiffy do you mean a spare bulb housing? With the metal contact points?

Guys,

I'm going to have to pass on Duxford as well. I will join up for the BBQ and have someone follow me on the bike.

Smiffy/others if you have got a spare rear light unit or parts within I'll buy them off you at Sharnbrook!
