What a great day the sun was shining the track got cleared eventually and the racing got on the way with added danger it had snowed and it was agreed that spectators could throw snowballs at the racers. This announcement was heard in the bar on one marshalls radio and the response for the bar was a loud yes the bar then emptied.

The rules pay attention to the last one you have been warned.

Run to the Sun 2008

2008-10-04T18:21:00.004+02:00

The odds were stacked against us this year after making the decision to move sites we had to move back to the slightly water logged original field, so on the afternoon of wednesday 24th Myself and Ooo$it hired a water pump and brought some wellies and set about draining the gate way to the field.
As you all saw we managed to get the gate way clear and on friday morning people started to arrive, friday night saw two magnificent bands Isolysis and Beholder take the stage and rock master Endo entertained untill the early hours on the decks.
Saturday after a cold start to the day the sun arrived the afternoon saw silly games hosted by Mistress and a Bikeshow.
The evening came and all the cowgirls,cowboys,indians and showgirls came out to play two more bands take to the stage King Nothing and Van Hooligan.
Thanks again to all involved in making this years Run to the Sun the bast to date.

Moddey Dhoo Late Xmas Party.

2008-01-30T00:20:00.000+01:00

A Great weekend away after a bit of a problem getting there forgot my passport lucky I had my Costco card with me after all its a photo ID which is all you need for the Isle of Man, a passport or photo driving licence would have been easier.
The flight over was good arriving on the Isle of Man roughly on time where we were met off the flight by Nettie(Dizzygoth) and a couple of other members of the Moddey Dhoo accomodation and transport was laid on for everyone who wanted it all weekend.
The friday night was good plenty of O'kells ale and good chat in The Swan hotel in Ramsey.
Saturday afternoon skipping the morning which was spent dossing around and after a solid breakfast cooked by Ian we went for a quick look around the Island going to the Joey Dunlop tribute on the Mountain section of the TT coarse. Then over to Peel for an afternoon pint where most of the guests were found sampling O'kels fine ales.
Saturday night saw the main party I can't remember the name of the place it's all to fuzzy after too many double JD and cokes buffet band disco and a raffle then a quick take over of the disco by Nettie and Mistress saw the party finish in the early hours.
Sunday morning thank god we decided to get the tea time flight. Flight back was uneventful managed to get to Lumb Farm for our sunday get together.

Thanks to all the Moddey Dhoo for a great weekend.

Icy Ale Report

2007-12-11T23:29:00.000+01:00

Friday turned out to be a quiet reasonable day, Crocket was running slightly late so I waited for him to get to Derby then we set off to the Icy Ale rally in to the wilds of Linclonshire(or the dity duck caravan park). Arrived at the site about quarter past two, Ooo$it and Steve had already arrived and were nearly set up. It was then a case of pitch tent and go to the pub. Waiting now for the rest of the posse to arrive Wrecker, Toots and Andy turned up and Fish arrived after he finished work. So began a night of pub nuggets banter and by midnight "monty pythons the life of brian" had worked its way into the conversation. I think it was about ! ish when we were asked to leave the pub.

Saturday morning I surface by ten went to the pub had a breakfast and seeing as it was raining thats roughly where we all stayed for the day until closing time, with the odd game of pool and the video jukebox adding to the entertainment.

A wet John and Lel joined us in the saturday afternoon and soon settled into the chilled out atmosphere.

Sunday everyone was up and packed by 11 so it was a short ride to the local greasy spoon cafe for a fat dog breakfast, this was essential for us all to make our jouneys back home.

Thanks to all who attended for a great chill out weekend.

Icy Ale Rally Next Weekend

2007-12-02T19:49:00.000+01:00

Just a quick blog before I nip to Lumb Farm for our weekly meeting of great minds.
Icy Ale Rally next weekend 16 ribcrackers and friends going this year by far the largest turn out we've had going to a winter rally, don't get this many going to some of the summer rallys maybe things are on the up or the attraction of the cold weather makes it more of a challange.

Don't forget your hot water bottles.

Watch out for soap box derby details.

Whats going on?

2007-11-26T22:05:00.000+01:00

Things always seam to go quiet around this time of year not many rallies to go to, how ever the Ribcrackers Eskimo Division will be out and about on their usual winter jollys starting with the Icy Ale Rally the weekend of the 7th -9th of December a good traditional rally put on by the Druids mcc, we're hoping next year to do their summer rally the Poser Rally. Possibly we'll do the Frozen Brick Rally the weekend of the 11th - 13th of January 2008. One we'll definately be at is the Thistle Rally at the end of February a nice time of the year to visit the Scottish borders, the host club Forth Valley Motorcycle club always give a warm well and top hospitality. The thistle is in its 40th year this will make the invite to attend all the more special.

Ribcrackers Presents see the flyer below and the website www.ribcrackersmcc.co.uk for details of the Soapbox Derby, Ugly Bug Ball and Run to the Sun 08.

Endo's house warming.

2007-11-08T23:28:00.000+01:00

Ribcrackers resident DJ rockmister Endo has recently moved to Dunbar to move in with Suzie this weekend is his official house warming. A few of us are going up for the party some on friday night, myself and Fish are travelling up on Saturday morning taking a scenic routepossibly over the Northhumberland National Park.

Bikes Go Free Rideout

2007-10-27T18:06:00.000+02:00

The reason for this rideout demo in to the center of London is because the Government has decided that theres not going to be a national road pricing scheme this was good news the bad news is that they've handed the decision over to local goverment to decide on wither they want to do a road pricing scheme.
So on Saturday October 20th it was an early get up I waited for Fish to get his bike started then off down the M1 for a quick stop at Wrecker and Corals place in Luton where it was bacon butties and Danish pastries(for Fish). After being well fed it was off in to London the rideout was setting off from Wembley stadiums carpark.
The rideout set off on time at 13:00 with a police escort into the center of London at the Cenotaph on Whitehall where the ride finished there were some speeches from Riders connect and MPs.
The turnout for the ride was good some people may have been put off by the£5 charge to go on the ride, half the charge was to pay for the rideout half went to charity. A small price to pay to try and stop something that could cost us bikers more than a fiver.

A Good Time Had By All.

2007-10-02T18:59:00.000+02:00

Ribcrackers would like to thank everyone who turn up to to Run to the Sun 07, having had several behind the scenes hick ups in the weeks before it was alright on the night as they say.

Friday saw the setting up of the field completted and the first few people were turning up on site. Evening came Exhibit A kicked things off this was followed by an air band jam session then the yard of ale competion which was won by the Lady. Nuclear Minogue then delivered a set of their best covers in their own style and into early saturday morning Rock master Endo entertained the crowds.

Saturday morning up early for the Ribcrackers tidying up to do and on the gate to wait for more ralliers to turn up Bikeshow in the afternoon and silly games.

Rollin Thunder kicked off the saturday night entertainment with some of their own penned songs and a couple of cover songs chucked in, then it was the Miss Run to the Sun pagent in all its glory.

The crowd were then moved back for a fire show then V8 took the stage and were joined by the ribcrackers dancing girls.

Endo played his tunes into the early hours.

See you at the Wild West Style Run to the Sun 2008.

2007-09-24T10:39:00.000+02:00

2007-09-20T16:43:00.000+02:00

One week to go until Run to the Sun 2007 and the rally gods are testing us to the full first of all we are at cattonhall just on a different field a larger field by all acccounts, this is because due to the flooding earlier this great summer we have had a scooter rally got cancelled. Catton Hall double booked us with the scooter club, we only found out this when Fish got a phone call off the scooter club because they picked up one of our flyers at MFN.

Endo has just this morning finalized the rental of a stage and the Marquee should be bigger than last year, I know the bar staff look forward to doing our rally.

Back From Bloodstock.

2007-08-19T16:08:00.000+02:00

Tired three and a half days helping out and partying at the Bloodstock open air festival, we had to do a little bit more work due to some staff not turning up. For this our passes were upgraded to included the access to backstage area. The access to the backstage was a blessing because its not only on friday most of the toilets in and around the arena were full, the backstage had real high class portaloos with pictures on the walls and flowers in the ladies. Its not only us who make the mistake on the number of toilets and the change pumping out of them. May I add we have resolved the issue for this year.
Thursday night we got to watch Firewind a band I hadn't hear of before but will now be looking them up they sounded great, Testament finished the night off on the mainstage.
Then it was in to the Lava stage where Beholder were playing never seen this band before but recomend that you go see them these guys know how to party, the atmosphere in the tent was one of the best I've experienced with the band playing covers from Thin Lizzy,Metallica,Soil,Drowning Pool and Grease.
Friday morning 4 o'clock came and after a few after show drinks we got a couple of hours sleep then back to work checking passes etc. Lacuna Coil headlined the mainstage then it was in to the Lava tent to watch the Extremme Karioke and a few more beers.
Saturday came and things were settling down all the bands were on site all the campers and day tickets manged to catch a bit of Beyond All Reasons set, saw most of Sabbats set manged to watch a couple of bands in the unsigned stage as well.
In Flames finished it all of then it was round to the Lava tent to finish off the beer in the bar.
