We are being spoiled... The Three Tuns will be serving - just for us - bottles of Belgian Duvel, Vedett.... and they'll have limited supplies of Rochefort 10 too on the night. Grab one while you can. One of the ultimate Trappist ales. Not cheap: but worth it.

A timetable of the evening to follow soon.

Anyone from Letchworth (or Baldock) want to share a cab (or minivan) there and back?

Anyone from Ashwell want to share a cab (or minivan or wheel barrow) just back.... might be needed after 10 of the Rochefort.

Martin L

To be fair, it is 11.3% strength.

Wow, Rochefort 10 in Ashwell, theres a thing. ..weirdly i found a bar in the alps last week at 2700m that sold them and had one sat in the snow. somehow didnt taste right.

Hi dinner folk

Please note the timetable for Saturday evening. It's a bit different than previous years - as requested by the Tuns.

7pm Arrive

7.45pm Dinner

9.15pm Awards

10pm Quiz starts…

10.30pm Quiz finishes

Midnight. Bar closes

We might slot in one or two Cups before dinner and around dessert. Particularly for those unable to stay much after 9pm.

Expectation management: the quiz is silly/optional...

Martin L

Hi all

Just a reminder: do join if you can, even if you haven't got a dinner place. All welcome for the awards, quiz and banter.

We can't get the Rochefort 10 for less than £9 a bottle. The tuns are a bit worried we won't shift the case of 24. I have told them to keep the faith...

And for those of you wondering about the drone cam and lenses appearing at various CCA events for the last year and a half... We wil be treated to a raw little trailer at the dinner too. Exciting.

Hi All
Compounding the current knee bother keeping me off the bike, I've now picked up a dose of man flu. I've currently paid up for the dinner so if anyone would like the place it's there for the taking (although I can't remember what i ordered other than the lemon dessert!)
cheers
Iain

ps. I will have 3 seats available for a lift back to Baldock / Letchworth if anyone likes - or the other direction - happy to do a round

Paid up today via cca account Martin.
Looking forward to catching up with the CCA. Iain, sorry you are unwell. Hope it is not too serious.

Stuart F

Martin /Tim anyone else that was involved in putting on this evenings do. Thank you

We all really enjoyed that. Sorry we could not stay for the quiz Felix was really not feeling very well.

Makes you realise what a special club CCA is with such a diverse range of activities. Enjoyed the slide show and that video will be very good when it is finished.

Martin L

Thanks everyone. Great to see and chat to other riders and partners. Same format next year? Will you be picking up a trophy?? See you 2017.

Martin, Tim and everyone else, including all those from the Tuns, a really smashing night.
Nice to be celebrating all that is good at our club in our native home. Belgian beer was a hit and I'm sure the Tuns were happy to sell out!!

A personal thank you for kindly awarding me Clubman of the Year. I was certainly not expecting it at all and I'm flattered to know that the very small amount I do for the club is appreciated so much.

Kuurne Brussels Kuurne on telly now, get stuck in.

Absolutely brilliant night, great meal and good entertainment. Can't believe we didn't win the quiz (and there was definitely no cheating done on our behalf. Most definetely not. On that note I'd like to add that with Mark Wyer being chief judge at the primavera we're in safe hands).

Huge thanks to the staff at the tuns for the brilliant food and service and for providing a high chair for Tim (get well soon!).

Stef

great night, the tunns did us proud. thanks to martin, tim, matt, james etc

James D

Top night out that and many thanks to all the hard work from Martin Lawlessness to make it all happen.

Thank you Jenny and Dave 28 for getting me home:)

Next stop Majorca!

Vince - I don't think I managed to convince Jane and with the benefit of hindsight should have broached the subject pre the Rochfort 10's...

mwyer

Thanks from us too for a great night Martin and all.

We had been working most of the day and I had a cold on top of that so felt I could barely drag myself there. The fun and enthusiasm from all revived us and we nearly made it to the end of the evening. Sorry if I was a bit subdued and quiet rather than dancing on the tables as I normally do!

James - when are you in Mallorca? We are off on Saturday for a week.

Anyone else going to the Track Worlds on Friday?

Mark and Stevie.

Vincent

Great evening, perfectly corriographed. I'd like to also thank all those that tirelessly organise kit for the youth and senior riders. Everyone's contribution to the club counts to make it such a great experience.
Great trophy winners and results to celebrate also.
James, I think the Mallorca trip will require more forward planning for me. But loved the possibility for a while. Next time.
Can't wait to see the CCA movie later in the year too.
