Nim my other half has just sold a 999s. I tried, once, to ride it. I frightened myself. I stalled. I got off. That was the end of it. Apparently they are quite good fun though.
And Richiesoon2be, if you're looking for a singer, you gotta get Mand. She's here somewhere. She is allegedly good at singing into her hairbrush. We did once discuss setting up a band, it ended up being a ska/glam rock thing. I did once play my sax in a proper band but to be honest, I wasn't very good.
Here is the link to the UKMOC weekender anyway for you.

All the information you should need is there and once I have cancelled my booking at the Travelodge as I just can't make it this year, there should be some more room there if you're not a happy camper.
There is also another mini weekender in June and the info is here.
