Chaps,

I can't take the credit for this one. Baxterbasics suggested it n one of my obsessive lubrication threads.

With the current high surge of interest and enthusiasm in the springer world, he's suggested a gathering of like-minded enthusiasts.

We get a venue. To make it as fair as possible, it'd have to be centrally located, to make it possible for all.
Maybe an existing FT venue, but one with camping/b&b/hotel facilities.

An informal-ish FT/HFT shoot. Lots of trick, tuned springers.

Compulsory peeps have got to be Bigtoe, Mick, Jim Tyler and Terry D. Get some professional tuners there, too....Steve Pope, Tony Wall, Welsh Willy, Lyn Lewington, UK Neil.

Throw in lots of like-minded enthusiasts and home tinkerers. And also just people who enjoy shooting their springers, even basic, older, open sighted oldies.

Maybe a few trade stands...John Knibbs, Chambers Spares, manufacturers, importers etc etc.

Even if it can't be this grand, we need to organise a springer gathering, even if it's just 100 or so like-minded spring enthusiasts.

Come on, chaps, what do you think?

Likely venues?

THIS COULD BE A TRULY FANTASTIC DAY / WEEKEND. Let's make it happen!!
