who else is going ?
Well I've got my Ticket but can't decide if I'm camping Friday or just going Saturday, then do I go to Thundersprint or WSB on Sunday? A lot to do that weekend!
So if any of you see me say hello! I'll be on the Black Triumph on my Lonesome.
First time I've done this rally. Had a really good laugh and enjoyed it. Only person I recognised off here was Anneka. Went to say hi and had a short chat, was nice to meet her. I was in a group of about 10 people, and, we really had a blast...doing it again next tear..all being well
I was there with 2 friends and it was my first rally ever! What a blast! Loved it!! The entertainment was great, the beer was cheap and the people were fab - the toilets were grim!!!! Lol I didnt see a soul I recognised off BM sadly
Hi Clarkee - I would have said hi too - perhaps at future events we should have a BM meeting point!
Its not just the ladies who suffer the indignity of disgusting toilets - those with disabilities or mobility impairments often need to sit rather than 'hover' - I wouldnt have liked to have sat on amy of those!!!
Yes it was lovely to meet you Clarkee as for the toilets , I never use the one's by the camp site I always use the ones near the Marquees and Food Vans (they tend to pay more attention to those ) Was a good rally as always but marred by the bad accident on Sunday that happened just outside the gates , biker was flown to hospital by air ambulance but nothing to do with the rally ( it appears he was using the road along side the site as a race track ) no news on his condition but it was bad
I had a fab time at this rally, very chilled in the day, and some bloomin good bands by night.We fluttered our eyelashes at the parking marshall and managed to get an ace spot, and didnt have to carry our kit for a mile. I have to say i had no probs with any of the toilets i used, compared to some at festivals i've been to.
I will get around to putting up some photos, when i work out how, unless i do a Flickr link, if that's allowed.
My first NABD rally too....and a first ever rally for one in our group , what a great weekend we all had, and yes the loos were better near the marquees etc......i left after the accident but heres something someone heavily involved in NABD wrote about the rumours.....and im quote............. In a bid to avoid the usual bullshit generated by the ‘Biker’s rumour
mill’, here’s an update on the accident that occurred just outside of
the gate at the You’ve Been Nabbed rally on Sunday. A young guy who
had not attended the rally was racing down the A535 on his bike as many
of the local youngsters do at weekend. He was in collision with a car,
just yards from the gate of the event. There were dozens of witnesses at the gate who all agreed that the car driver was not in any way at fault.
Initially the accident looked catastrophic and rumours of “possible
fatality” were running around the site like wet shit through fishnet
tights. The site paramedics were on scene within seconds followed
minutes later by the ambulance service. The guy on the bike was lifted by air ambulance as a precautionary measure.
The report back on Sunday evening confirmed that the guy had been
released from hospital suffering some bruising and a broken finger.
So just to recap. Nobody from the event was involved. Nobody died.
Everybody went home in one piece. Please feel free to copy this and
remind people that when they pass on a bullshit rumour they become part
of the problem. If you know nothing, say nothing! Simples…
too add to that, NABD is really great value for money with the amount of entertainment on and the real ale bar very cheap....any pint only £2:50 but if you decided on the easier session beers then cans at £6 for four, a great choice of food and stalls to browse around.....definantly will be going again, local to me too
