F.A.O those going to LLandow on June 4th

Post by billinom8s »

As it's getting close to this i thought it might help to create a check list for those who have never been before and for those who don't have very good memories :D

When you ad your suggestion to the list if you can cut and paste the list that way it will remain easy to read.

Many Thanks

All the bike prep stuff is purely advisory, and Llandow to date have made no specific demands on bike prep :wink:
