    Beaumont vs Teviot Rally clash - discussion

    Hey yall,

    Just interested in which rally everyone is going to. I know there's a bit of political posturing going on but that's all I know. I also know Woodybee is going to post what she knows regarding the "political posturing".

    Anyway, I'm interested in your views....[there, I've opened Pandora's box!!!]

    Talking Beaumont or Teviot

    Hey Dudes and Dudess's

    Right lets get started, there has been talk that the publicans pocket it all, but I have the entry form which they kindly sent me as I have attended 3 of these rallies before, and the gate proceeds from the Registrations go towards the Canteen Charity, so put paid to those rumours.

    I did hear, that there isn;t a lot of love lost between the two rally holders and I heard a nasty rumour about something, but I didn't hear it personally so I spoke to a few of you at the rally about it, but don't like to pass on what I heard, as its unfounded rumours.

    I would like to say though that the Beaumont Rally has always had the Rally on this date in April and for another Publican just down the road, to sudddenly decide to put on a rally at the same weekend, is pure crap, shit and will depleat numbers from both rallies as a result of that action. What the fuck are they thinking of doing that for fucks sake.

    Look what happened to the Winchester when Burt Munroe did their Rally onthe date the Winchester had theirs on, Burt changed their date last year which enabled the numbers at both to grow.

    I made sure that the Garston Rally didn't clash with any other major ones, other than the Hog Rally which I didn't see heavily advertised so that was unfortunate.

    The venue rather than either personality is getting my vote, so I am definately going to the Beaumont, bollocks to the political shyte behind it, I had already made my decision before I heard stuff........which I thought was pure poo................so I know I am making the right decision by attending the Beaumont.

    Everyone's an individual, but look at the site behind the Beaumont, its flat, perfect, excellent facilities, there's new Dude doing it (paul) so it may be different but I am sure its going to be fantastic.

    The poster (which I shall get someone to post on here!!) says its Back, Bigger and Better than ever, so lets give Paul our Support and attend it,

    Paul at the Beaumont hosted last year Triumph Rally and he really did a fantastic Job, the food was fantastic, he was good fun, and as said the site is fantastic.

    Anyway thats my views, so hope you fantastic kber's will come along and party with Woodybee, think Anthony and Q are definate;s and its always a good party when they are around.

    Thats all for now folks.

    Gnite

    I see from the Teviot Valley Rally entry form that it is organised by the previous publican from Beaumont. I can't see any sense in it!
    You must camp at the Millers Flat Camping ground, pay their fees, walk across to the pub to buy their beer etc.
    I won't support it if it dilutes the Beaumont Rally. I suspect sour grapes over some lease deal.

    Talking Sour Grapes

    There is definately some kind of sour grapes, which I think is total bollocks, its a vicious act to try to jepordise another rally out of spite, its terrible,.

    So BEAUMONT, BEAUMONT, BEAUMONT as previous stated, great site, nice and flat, bit more of a private bit at the front, plenty of chickens, which I went asleep amongst a couple of years ago, whe everyone went on their day ride, and bless they were crouched down having a snooze when I woke up...........................almost got of first names terms with em

    Anyway, its so lovely.

    Dear Gus and Claire, if you guys read this, I think you are both great folk, but don;t know why the frig these two rallies have happened do us all a favour, cancel yours, stage it 2 weeks later, and I shall publicise it for you at the Beaumont, and I guarantee you will have more dudes there in two weeks, that you will do on the weekend you are planning now.

    it's nuts, crazy, awful, selfish (on someone's part) crap. I am sitting onthe fence as said previously about folk, but the location wins for me.

    Ciao for now.

    Woodybee reckons there should be 2 rallies, new thread coming on it, cast your votes now
