Stick my name down for it, and I think Martyn Weeks/Lance Selby are up for it in the V24.

How much is the entry fee?

Where is the evening do?

What states of tide can you launch and recover? I have never taken part in a poker run but I fancy a bash!

No problem with tides, they launch by crane!

Come and have a go, 10 times better than racing, and you may go home with cash on the hip!

I won the pot once, and several of my customers have also!

Here's a pic of the last Poker run , thats Tony in the lead

MrRob · 15-06-2005, 10:11 PM

cool, so the general idea is to travel somewhere as fast you u can, have some dinner and drink then race back?
What kind of distance are we talking? They mention refueling, I assume they have a petrol pump at the water side? I dont have a clue! lol

I fly back from france that afternoon (land about 4 ish) if Mrs Chaos grants me a day liscence, is it worth coming down for the evening or is everyone always really kackered by 8pm?

Well TD has elevated himself to 'king O the hill', so to speak, in the speed department anyways, so if you want a REALLY fast ride, you need to be in his sphincter cat, if a mere 71mph will do, you can slum it on my pedelo.
