Title: Crich Tramway Classic Bike Show 2019
Post by: Rozabikes Tim on December 07, 2018, 09:47:37 PM
Had a couple of emails about next years event. Relevant content as below from first email and second as separate post.

Tim

Good afternoon,

First of all, many thanks to all of you that attended in the last two years and made the 'Classic Motorcycle Day' the success it has been so far. The 'Vincent HRD Owners Club' and 'Crich Tramway Village' team are working hard to make it another great day in 2019 and any previous issues we had, will hopefully be resolved.

One change this year which is most relevant to yourselves, the Club organisers, is that we are NOT making use of a 'club booking form this year'. Instead, I will monitor the event registrations that open in January via   www.tramway.co.uk/whatson/  and allocate areas accordingly. Each year we move the clubs around, so please don't expect to be in the same place as previous years. I do intend keeping the race bikes outside the depot again and we are definitely having an area somewhere for pre-war machines and vintage flat tankers.
You will, of course, be notified in advance of the event where your club or group will be allocated. 

This year we are running the 'Public Vote' for 'Best in Show' again but are working on a plan to get more people to actually vote than in previous years. We would like you all to encourage your members to vote and get the public to vote.

And second email as below

Tim

Dear all,
a quick email to all interested clubs.
The Tramway staff have just informed me that registration for the 2019 'Classic Motorcycle Day' has now opened on their website  www.tramway.co.uk/whatson/
I've attached the entry form and the flyer to this email in case you want to use either of them or have difficulties getting on the website.
Please remember we are no longer utilising a 'Club Form' but are just having an individual entry form to make it simpler. We'll decide on club locations at the event once we have an idea how many are coming from each club.
We are recommending individuals to send off their entry forms asap as we anticipate reaching our capacity this year and please remember to include your stamped addressed envelopes.

Ok Tim. Shall we just do what it says then, fill in the form and send it off. Do we need to write Honda SOHC forum on the form somewhere, so they know who we are?

Who is going this year ? I have finally made a decision and applied, I received my entry numbers back this morning 73, 74. I would have thought they would have been higher numbers.

Just been reading through the regulations (terms and conditions and noted the following;
All vehicles must be covered by valid third-party insurance to the level of £5 million, without restriction, and this must cover all passengers or pillion passengers.
Err, seems a bit of an overkill, but do common or garden motorcycle insurance policies cover this or does one have to seek further insurance. If it's the latter then I cant see I'll be going. Insurance companies take enough of my money as it is.

We have been the last 2 years and str going this year and have never taken any extra insurance out and don't intend taking out any extra this year either.

Post by: Moorey on March 16, 2019, 02:45:51 PM
It is standard for Shows, its Crich Tramway covering its own arse. If worried about it ask your insurance. I know I won't be doing so.

Have I got this right? Every bike that attends, even as a visitor must be registered? Can you just turn up on the day?

Yes, you can turn up on the day but you have to pay to get in. If you pre register, it's FOC for each bike and rider as an exhibitor, but pillions still have to pay.

I did see this and thought I might go but I don't know what I'll be doing next week, never mind July. Just have to pay on the day or register anyway and see nearer the time.

The trouble with that is if you don't go it could stop someone else going if the register gets full, which it more than likely will, if the past is anything to go by.

Post by: MCTID on March 16, 2019, 06:00:27 PM
Hahahahaha. The £5 Million Insurance criteria will probably be some smartarse jobsworth covering said smart arse.

No problem for me......cos I won't be riding there - but I bet if every biker who is planning to attend on their pride and joy was to query such a silly arsed requirement, and then refuse to accept it and/or not bother going, then said smartarse jobsworth would suddenly find himself/ herself out of said job....and common sense would probably prevail.

I thoroughly enjoyed visiting last year (in my car), but like many things nowadays, if the wrong people get involved in Health and Safety aspects, i.e. those who cannot exercise 'Common Sense', then what has always been a good day out and an enjoyable and pleasant experience for many ordinary Lads and lasses, unfortunately becomes the stuff of nightmares !

As some people commenting on here have already said - they ignore it because it's clearly a daft stipulation - but it's precisely because Attendees DON'T query it or flatly refuse to comply, that it ends up becoming the 'norm'......and the smartarse jobsworths take over the asylum !

Title: Re: Crich Tramway Classic Bike Show 2019 - Clarification on Insurance Cover.
Post by: MCTID on March 21, 2019, 02:09:43 PM
Hi Folks,

Amidst all this #@%$ nonsense.....I have some good news.......I'm pleased to say that the very nice people at Crich Tramway are reviewing their Insurance requirements for Classic Motorcycles. Please see their comments below:

Dear Mr T,

Thank you for your email concerning the Insurance criteria for Classic Motorcycles attending our Classic motorcycle Event on 7 July 2019. You are correct in your point about the insurance and I very much appreciate you pointing out our error and thank you for reading the small print. Your regular motorbike insurance is, of course, absolutely fine, you do not need £5M cover. I shall make sure the forms are changed today.

I can only imagine that when the forms were originally compiled this was left over in error from the Traders application forms which is the only time we ask for this amount of insurance.

I hope that this clarifies our position and I very much hope we will see you at the event on 7th July.

Kind regards

Candi Bell

Well done for getting clarification Alan. I personally, was taking no notice of their stipulations as i considered it to be totally stupid and OTT  ;D

Well done Alan. I'm hoping to attend this as missed last year's event. I'll probably take the CB250RSA.

Post by: MrDavo on April 16, 2019, 05:36:37 PM
I've applied to go on the CL450 for a change, it should handle the cobbles well.

I look forward to seeing you all again.

Post by: Rozabikes Tim on June 26, 2019, 06:31:08 PM
I have been asked to clarify numbers on this for space.

As I see it we have Julie, Graham, Mr Davo and Laverda 120 saying they are coming on bikes. On this basis I have said we will 4-10 in case any turn up on spec or not said they are coming etc.

Looking forward to seeing the CL450 Dave. Sorry in advance if I bore you to death with questions about the engine.

 I'll definitely be there on the 250. Its going to a slow 5 hour journey on the A and B roads for me so stopping over at a hotel in Melton Mowbray on Saturday night on the way up!
It will be nice to put some faces to names. I think Alan (MCTID) is planning on driving?

My Chauffeurs peaked cap is dusted and ready Roy !

Just given the Mondeo it's annual vacuum and power wash..........in readiness.

If the weather is as glorious as last year....and the turnout as good, and the motorsickles just as splendiferous, then I'll be a very happy lad !
