Well guys 6 years ago James Westwood and co asked me to be the North East Co Coordinator for the BMWCC Scotland and i have spent many hours of my own time trying to build up the North East scene as there was nothing up here,We have seen some great meets over the years inc a very successfully Tour d Ecosse amongst others,but unfortunately over the last year the North has become more or less derlict with the lack of members due to guys selling up etc and the lack of Enthusiasm from others,so i have decided that from the end of year i will be removing myself from the role of North East Coordinator,I am still a paid up member of the club tho,so will be looking to attend meets and events in 2011 and hopefully the 2011 committee will find a way and a person to build up the North East again.

I would like to thank the current Committee for the effort and support and the Ex Committee also for making the club what it is today

 

Pete

Thanks for all the good work over the years, your help to the Scottish region has been invaluable. 

I really believe we've got the Scottish region making massive strides forward now with many varied venues/meets and events going on around the country, so although the NE guys may have lost interest I think the rest of the country is thriving and hopefully in the future we can revive an interest  in the NE.

Good luck with the future.

For me, the highlight of your tenure had to be the Polished Bliss meet in 2007 where £700 was raised and donated to sponsor Worthy a Guide Dog puppy

I would like to thank Pete for all his efforts in the NE Region over the last 6 years and I wish him all the best for the future.

As Stevie says I would like to see members from the NE joining in once more in events in 2011. If anyone has any ideas or would like to help us please contact me direct.

Well done mate you can hold your head high. You revived a section of the region that had not really been tapped into.
