I have been looking at this and I think the only real day that you would be ale to manage to get people there and not be in any chance of getting a clash during the week or anytime else would be the Friday before TT week. But this may reduce the number of locals attending because of it being during practice week. You couldn't really try to run it race week from Saturday onwards due to the risk of loosing the day to racing. Or I have had a think about doing it at night, don't know how this would fit in but think it could be a good idea. I know a few bands who would appear to keep the atmosphere going and I know some people to supply fast food, but all of these people help out at other places and marshal so don't know what the implications would be if we ran it during the day.

You could run it over a couple of nights, we could even put a fun section in so anyone who fancied fancy dress could enter just to lighten the mood a little and open up the event. Entrants pay a few quid to enter with all the proceeds going to maybe the Joey foundation for the house. Could make the fancy dress a classical fancy dress, you are only allowed to wear something that has been seen as standard at fancy dress competitions, nothing new.......

We could ask Black Horse as they obviously have an interest in motorcycles and also a sponsor interest. Get one of the mags to cover prizes in exchange for adverts and banners. I think I could persuade a few people to cover the expense of programs and banners in exchange of a few things so you just never know.

I don't mind helping out if we get enough people ..... think it could be a dammed good idea of ours ...... just need a name maybe we could run a competition on here?
