A question about a potential presentation/talk

As some of you know, I quite regularly get asked to give presentations to various motorcycle groups and clubs around the country on a variety of motorcycle/legal related subjects.

However, I appreciate that not everyone is a member of a group and club but still have a wish to attend such an evening or event.

On that basis, if a talk/surgery type event was set up within reasonably easy travelling distance of where you live at an independent venue and was free of charge (even tea and coffee and maybe a few biccies may be provided at no cost as well ) would any of you be interested?

It is just an idea that I am kicking around at the moment so nothing speciific in mind yet. I am just trying to gauge what the interest might be.

And for those who say I am in the south and you live in the north, or you are in the west of the country or wherever, there would be a series of these around the country, so it would not be exclusive to just one part of the country.

I would be interested to hear your thoughts.

 

I would say yes to that mate.
Nothing better than a conversation with friendly people who share the same passion

It is a potential idea that I am looking at, as I have spoken to a couple of dealers who run social events, and with whom I have quite a good relationship with.

Being from a training and enforcment background, it could be a joint venture with some schools or groups which could be seen as a PR event for them as well, but there will still be locations where we would pick up the slack ourselves.

 

Millennium motorcycles would be a good venue for the North west area they have a lounge area and café up stairs, which is always a bonus

 

Thanks for the suggestions, but the last thing many dealers want is an outsider coming in and taking over their premises when there is nothing in it for them, and especially when it is someone they don't know. So the chances of someone like you mention welcoming us with open arms is about the same as me winning an Olympic gold medal this summer.

Even dealers I know I think will be reluctant, but I would ask them to get a feel before I even considered approaching dealers I don't know.

It may be easier to just hire a suitable venue for the evening, or aproach one of the many advanced riding groups or learner schools I know in that part of the world.

I appreciate your thoughts though.

 

They are not a bad lot a millennium and if people are buying food and drink from the cafe it's money for them, just a thought
