Yep, you get the clueless old bastards, dispensing their infinite knowledge, poking and prodding other peoples' property with their walking sticks.

The reason I don't bring the car to shows is because I can't commit to staying all day.

Leaving at 3pm is a bit much, though they should do something to stagger the departure of 1,000 cars, many of which might have a penchant for overheating.

I've create a shared google calendar for anyone interested. You can add it by using the following email address: mtgpo79t41nlpqa5snsbads8i8@group.calendar.google.com

1. Copy the above email address
2. Go to your google calendar via your web browser
3. On the panel on the left click the little arrow to the right of other calendars
4. Click add a friends calendar
5. Paste the above email address into the field

And that should be it.

It seems like I'm the only one who can edit the calendar, if anyone would like to help me adding dates to the calendar please drop me a pm with your email and I'll setup permissions for you.

Photos from the latest meet there, biggest attendance yet.
There is also a Dundalk meet (very busy) and possibly Limerick, Cork etc.

There is lots of other events planned and happening, particularly up North, including weekly meetings. Typically I get the info from Facebook groups. These are best 3 places

(North of Ireland mostly)

They have weekly meetings on Wednesday evening in Banbridge I think, but that schedule might change shortly.

Some people on these groups are very chatty with multiple posts per day so might not be a good idea to join unless you have hours free per day.

If you have a specific interest or area of the country we might be able to point to specific club or group.

Do they get many bikes?

Asking for a friend 😀

We had a little meet last night to launch our classic vehicle show and family day on Saturday the 16th of July 2022. We are going to try and raise much money, for a good cause #fightwitheoghan please share and share and share, more details to follow. #classiccarshow #classiccars #classicmotorcycle #vintagetractors #familyfunday #straffan #kildare

The show and family day is to try and raise as much money for #fightwitheoghan is an urgent Family Appeal which aims to help raise much needed funds towards Eoghan's ongoing medical care.

On Sunday 3rd October 2021 his life changed forever. While mountain biking in the Dublin mountains with his friend Sean. Eoghan came off his bike while coming down a trail and caused a fracture of his C3 on his spine. He was rushed to hospital where he was put in an induced coma and on a life support machine, he later underwent emergency spinal surgery. Eoghan was unable to breathe by himself for many weeks and was told he may never come off the ventilator. But Eoghan being a fighter fought against the odds and with great determination and excellent help from his medical team Eoghan in now breathing unassisted. However Eoghan still remains paralysed from the neck down and has no control of his upper or lower body. He is now continuing his treatment at the National Rehabilitation Hospital in Dun Laoghaire.
