Wink UKMOC does Milan

No, is not the title of the next XXX movie, although some bike porn will be involved. The event will be held from the 8th Nov to the 13th. I know is a long way away but I'm just gauging what the interest would be in terms of numbers as different numbers will mean different ideas in terms of accommodation and transport.
Roughly the schedule will be as follows:
EICMA on press day, bikes factories (with a special eye to small independent builders) , museums, food and drink.
I know Andrea already spoke to a number of people and few things are already lined up. Last year was a hoot, as I'm sure all those who attended would agree.
In terms of budget it depends how much you spend on those shiny parts (albeit no sales are made at EICMA) but rooms last year were 50€ per night (but again a cheaper place has been found for this year) and food I think it averaged around 20€ per meal (and we've had some serious food&drinks).
Last year threads with pics as follows:

Let me know and we take it forward.

Oh ok, if you insist........ you can put me on the "interested" list.......

Calum was only talking about this yesterday........ so I guess you can count him in too.

You forgot to mention the Wednesday night at 100HP club..........

I won't be able to make this one (I'll be in India at the time) but I'd highly recommend it.

Max and Andrea did a brilliant job organising last year's trip

Think I might be stretching myself this year mate, seeing as I want to jump in on the Le Mans outing... will keep in touch with the thread but not looking likely

I thought Bean had already said he was coming!

Still have memories of Stafford and others in the helicopter simulator ...
