BRONZ returns to the Capital, Dec 7th

[BMWST?]

Was that in response to my suggestion about the contact sheets?

If so, I agree that KB and BRONZ have no direct relationship. But it can be useful for your own reference when discussing something on here to know that the person known as "XXX" here is the same person who you met at the pub last night and were introduced to as "Pete."

The contact sheets aren't actually a BRONZ membership form, they are just a way to stay in communication with interested parties. KB is another way to communicate with interested parties - and it's useful to be able to cross-reference them!

more likely to be the other way round.....i either dont know a name or know only a kb name....no drama's

[StoneY]

Shameless bump.

A very good meeting to kick off BRONZ Wellington.

[Ms Piggy]

A very good 1st meeting. Particularly having it opened by the Hon. Rick Barker!

Why is BRONZ chapterised? Wouldn't it be more efficient to have a national organisation with local branches, rather than having autonomous local chapters sharing a name only?

Ah then you should have been there to ask that question then my good sir...

A good first meeting. I have no idea who most of you all are, but I guess that will change with time.

There is a BRONZ national. It hasn't met for years and years , because motorcycling went into such a downturn, even getting a single local branch was struggling. Finn Nielsen is the last surviving member of the National committee.

But we are now planning a National congress in January (dunno exactly when, ye).

National sets broad policy and coordinates the regions.

[Karl08]

Could not make it in the end- exciting phone call with board member.

Keen to hear about future developments

We use the term 'branch' now Hitcher

Les is in the process of organizing a national panel, so all good
