Trollitorial
This is the new MAG Logo being foisted upon us, without any consultation with the membership and frankly its hideous! Why it was thought the logo needed changing is beyond this poor Troll’s reasoning. Personally I much prefer the old pipes logo. And how much has it cost MAG? And why are all the dedicated MAG volunteers working their butts off to help finance the fighting fund if money is to be wasted on this senseless exercise. Questions must be asked at the next NC meeting!
Nick & Bev
On the 16thof June that well known Glos MAG couple Nick & Bev got married.
Family and Friends were invited to the postnuptial party held in the orchard behind Nick’s home. Where the rally marquees were pressed into service and the bar served a fine selection of real ales.
Good luck and best wishes to the happy couple.
Bristol MAG
Manhole Cover Campaign
Bristol MAG is greatly disappointed over the response from central regarding the manhole campaign, especially in light of the fact that it was adopted at the AGC held in Weston in 2002, and reads:
Motion 1 -Manhole And Service Access Covers That MAG adopt a national campaign to address the problems that manhole covers and service access covers present to two-wheel vehicle use. Richard Stiling 88797 Chris Selway 84422 Vote -Carried unanimously.
This was a successful campaign in Bristol and needs to be rolled out across the UK Time the National Campaigns manager pulled the ol’ finger out!
