No one can dispute the clear effort and enthusiasm for this region. I commend you as the organiser.
I am curious to know how much attending all those events, near and far will cost an individual over the 2023 period? I am aware no one has to attend all or any. Edited by Norrie - 30 Dec 2022 at 7:31pm |

Good question. I haven't tried pricing up it all up and don't plan to as I will attend the vast majority regardless. But at a quick count 25 of them have no direct costs, just petrol/diesel costs. A fair number involve some of the best driving roads in the country. Seven or eight-ish also include entry fees, hotel costs etc. These are made known closer to the event so people can choose to attend or not.

It was not meant to be critical, however I do suspect that many folk who would love to attend everything find that the economic pressures are going to weigh heavy in 2023. I have had to cut back, my nearest pub meet is 110 miles round trip so unfortunately don't do that anymore. I have a feeling that owning any older BMW will become a real luxury item and that serious evaluation will need to be made for best value of money to any event. Those in your region are fortunate to have someone willing to give their time and effort to organise such, I have done a limited amount of it and it can be time consuming and always a relief when it goes well.
