Pre-War Discussion Forum

Post by Mythos1 »

Good Evening,
I have just joined the club, and i have 2 AJS at present both 1926 a G8 & G5 model all in working order. I was wondering now we are looking more likely to be in another lockdown phase, i was wondering if anybody would be interested in a monthly Video Conferencing call [Zoom/Teams etc..] I belong to a number of other clubs and this seems to be how they are keeping in touch. Happy to run a session if anybody is interested.

Welcome, Steve.
Sussex section has been running Zoom monthly club nights since the Lockdown. First Weds of each month. We get around ten participating although all AMOC members from anywhere are invited. Three or four of the Zoom participants have pre - 1930 bikes and one has just restored and ridden (to much amusement) a three wheeled Wall Autowall bicycle attachment.
We all get notification of upcoming Zooms by email from our Hon. Delectable Secretary.
An earlier post in the 'General' forum explains how it happens:

We'd be delighted for you to join us (we natter about all sorts, not just bikes) so send an email request to Christine at the section address in the Jampot mag. (I don't want to show it on an open Forum).

I believe there's also a Yahoo! Groups pre-war website.
Sprid.

Steve is not showing up as a club member Neville, so will not see Christines contact details in Jampot. He will of cause only have free use of the club forum for the allowed time limit.

Steve only joined a couple of days ago so won't have rec'd a Jampot mag with section details, but.......
I've just discovered that members and non-members can find the official section contact details on the main website, even without logging on:


http://www.jampot.com/Sections.asp

(Which is fine as they're 'official' not personal email addresses).

You did not have permission Steve because you are not a paid up club member, you are a guest for a limited time of 90 days on the forum.

I've just logged out completely and searched as if I was a non subscriber and could open the second link I gave previously...........

Anyway the Sussex section address in the public domain is : sussex@jampot.com

I may have over-egged the pudding as although several have pre-war machines we don't actually talk about them much but we do talk about bikes and rallies etc. and have considerable expertise on cholesterol levels and replacement hips. :rofl: (That IS a bit of a joke ;) )
