Would someone please copy and paste the relevant event info please?
I'd do it if I could but my phone keeps copying everything instead of just the relevant info
Cheers

Hi to all you new and old types ha ha Keep an eye on 23rd April - Pick
up a Pillion day - this year will be at Matlock. This is a great event
to meet up with new people and keep an eye out also for places to meet
up prior to setting off for MATLOCK - or make your own way. I'm pretty
sure (mentioning no names) that I know one or two who have paired off
after a Pick up a Pilly day, Should be on events callendar. For us Midland lot, the usual meet up is Bassetts Pole and
then go from there, but I'll finalise that nearer the time. If you want
to check out where it is - Post Code Address: London Road Bassets Pole,
Sutton ...... B75 5SA Usually meet outside or inside McDonalds for a
tea and a bun before setting off. I don't mind leading if someone will
volunteer to be backmarker to keep the L's and 125's in line. No
motorways so L/125 will be OK, no-one will get left behind. Come along,
join in, what have you got to lose ???
As BJ says : Anybody
wanting a pilly seat, add yourself to the 'lift' option

Hey ross39, I'm not sure whether there will be a Manchester start point, as no one has indicated one way or the other as yet.

However, you will be most welcome to join us in Holmfirth. Just post up nearer the date to let us know whether to keep an eye out for you

i'm only near Uppermill so Holmfirth is a lot easier for me anyway .
I have loads of new parts to fit before i can take it out and i'm having a garage put in at the moment, so i'm stuck to weather allowing conditions to fit parts, untill garage is up and running.

OK..must be time for me to ask a silly question posed a thousand times before...
Why isn't it possible to create an active link between the event and the relevant post (this one)..?
I would've thought that would save loadsa bumping, repasting and constantly having to repeat stuff?
Updates are great, but to have post and event directly linked would also make it easier to switch between the two and help keep things live and current.
I've seen it configured in other similar software apps.
Matt...Mods...am I being too off planet?
