Eastern Centre News

As some of you will know, Colin Armes spent a couple of weeks in hospital last month at the time when he would normally be putting the Gazette together. In order to get the gazette out in time I offered to help lay out the artwork for the printer. 

Unfortunately this came at a very busy time, with two electronically timed motocross meetings to set up (unfortunately both cancelled due to the weather). This, coupled with the last-minute dash to make the print deadline, meant that I was not as vigilant as I should have been and the following errors made it in to the printed copy of the gazette.

1. 1. The Eastern Centre Youth Motocross Championship round is incorrectly shown as 20th May in the printed version of the May Gazette. The correct date is 27th May.
   2. The Norfolk & Suffolk Junior trial at Rendham is shown as Saturday 27th May - this should read Sunday 27th May
   3. The Vikings trial at Glanford is shown as Saturday 3rd June - this should read Sunday 3rd June

All of the above errors have been corrected in the online version, which can be viewed on this site.

I would also like to point out that the errors above were introduced by me, not Colin.

Please note: Entry forms for the Chemsford & DAC round of the Eastern Centre Motocross Championships on 4th June should be sent to Geoff Brace, NOT Sue Thorpe. Geoff's address, including postcode, is in the online version of the gazette, and can also be found here. 

Terry Sewell has had his Greeves Anglian Stolen, along with approx £3k worth of new spares. Further details will be posted as soon as they become available. In the meantime, if you have any info that may help in it's recovery please contact the webmaster.

The light fingered scum have unfortunately struck again. Jake Morphey has had both his KTM 450s stolen, see below for details and photos of the bikes.

The Dave Roper Memorial Fund was set up after Dave’s untimely death in July 2009 jointly by his family and the Sudbury Motor Cycle Club. The Fund is designed to help and support the Club’s young and up and coming riders and to go further within the Sport.

With the Anglian Water hosepipe ban due to come into force very shortly, doubtless followed by similar restrictions from other water companies, it was felt prudent to approach AW to see if/how this could affect forthcoming events.
