All Ireland Italian Motor day 2007

Just like last year it is the NIIMC's hope to run this event. So we are advertising it early to give everyone a chance to to have a say on were they would like it to be.
We intend for it to be at the end of May or early June.

Last year it was held at the Tidy Duffer Revarnet which is just outside Lisburn. We had a great turnout of 58 vehicles. Unfortunately only 2 Alfas came to the event so I do hope we can muster up a lot more for the 2007 event.

I'll be posting in various other Italian make forums and hope you all will support the event so it again can be a big success.

Thanks, Stu

I'll be there mate

Could be up for this if it's around the bank holiday time.

Usuallly scoot home* for a few days around then

Sounds like a good way to spend a weekend, if you ask me

If I'm at home I'll be attending, sounds like a good day out.Now Lambretta or Alfa on the day?....decisions decisions lol! I'll ride the Lammy and the Missus can bring the Alfa. (may get those shopping trolley scrapes dealt with and the T-Cut out!)

Thats a beauty of a GTA Phil, where abouts in Belfast are you? Aint seen any at all round here (I'm over Dundonald direction) Seen a gorgeous silver 147 GTA though the other night on the Knock carriageway......only slightly jealous!

The NIIMC who will probably organise it again this year are having our first meeting on the first Tuesday of Feb at the Tidy Duffer Revarnet at 7.45 pm. We will probably start working on the All Ireland thing then as I want to get it organised asap.

Everyones welcome to come along.

Looking forward to it Stu...See you at the meet...John i live in the city centre...

LOOK like we may be able to make it , as I have just started a new company in Ireland. How about Rostrevor.

I'm also a member of a couple of scooter clubs, one of which is the Ulster Lambretta Club, which has just been reformed after 40 years.Will pass the word about, see if we can get a few people up.
Whens the next club meet?

Ok We are seeing if we can use Cultra Museum and the prov date is the last Saturday of May.

JohnK why don't you speak to the Lambretta people and see if they would be interested in joining up with the NIIMC. the whole point of calling it a Motor Club was for it to cover all Italian vehicles not only cars. Or even affiliate it with us. The more the better. Just a thought.

Will bring it up at the next meeting, however I think joint club events etc will be more than likely encouraged. The scooter fraternity can be quite 'traditional' and tends to not be anything, other than a scooter club However, joint ventures could be very positive for both clubs. Also as a matter of interest for anyone, tomorrow, the other club I belong to (Solid Bond Scooter Club) is having its first ride out from the City Hall, meeting at 11h00. Members of other clubs will be joining us and more importantly we are collecting donations for a very worth while cause. Below is a copy of the post I put on our forum.Everyones invited, come down for a look and a natter, and this will be our sponsored charity for this year.

Please read and digest the following:

quote from the paper-- We are writing to you to ask for your help in raising money/sponsorship and awareness of a serious disease that our eight month old son Dylan has been diagnosed with in the past few weeks. Dylan has Taysachs Disease (tsd), this is an inherited genetic disorder that causes gradual destruction of the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. Children with this disease have progressive systoms and usually die by 3-5 years of age. Dylan also suffers from Nystagmus (rapid eye movement and poor vision). At the present time in the USA there is ongoing research into finding a cure for tsd . We are currently looking into this . Taking Dylan to America for research treatment is our only hope of saving our much loved son .We hope to get Dylan to America ASAP before the systoms develop futher . If you think you can help in any way, no matter how small, please dont hesitate to contact us .Thank you - contact... Ms Carrie Davidson 6 glenrosa street belfast bt15 2jb email-gjdicks@yahoo.co.uk.

Solid Bond SC will be having its first official ride out on Saturday 17th (thats this Saturday!) and what better way to kick off 2007 than to help a family in need.I'm sure there won't too many of you out there that are not touched by the above plea. I know I am.So...get your piles down to the city hall, 1100 Saturday morning, wallet in hand and a full tank of juice, Help us help young Dylan and in the process join us for some great craic, taking in Bangor then on to Donaghadee for a wee lemonade. Not too far on these brisk winter days.....so get amongst it and help us raise some money. If you cant make it, don't worry contact myself on here and if you or your club would like to make a donation, I'll collect and highlight your contribution. I know this Saturday is short notice, but we want to get this money to Dylan ASAP. Many thanks in advance.

Sounding good Stu, all being well, I'll be there.

Depending what the weather is like on the day I will be there in one of my Alfasud's - probably my Sprint.
