A bloke in Matlock today was telling us about a Charity Run for the RSPCA on Saturday 29 April, starting at Granby Motors in Ilkeston - if anyone is interested here is the website -

There will be a raffle on the day to win a day at the Ron Haslam Race School.

Dont you think some form of explanation would be required for that comment rather than just leave it at that?

:roll:

Fair enough - if you're not interested, don't go.

I'm sure there are plenty of others who think it's a worthwhile cause, and a good day out.

Right and that means all their work for helping poorly treated dogs and cats and other pets is pointless too? :? :roll:

Just because you disagree on a point of principle I dont think this was the forum, time or place to make that point really.

Same...but they don't only campaign against hunting and shooting....as a matter of fact, they do actually condone hunting( in moderation) of certain species of animals.

Not a good attitude to have matey :? Next time your or someone you know has a pet attacked by some idiot yob, don't expect them to fight your corner :thumbsup:

Fight in my corner? thats a laugh. as for them condoning hunting in moderation, BULL. Did not anyone see/hear the news the other week when the RSPCA were prosecuting a police man for cruelty because he put a cat out of its misery because it was suffering too much, I suspect not. They spent thousandstaking the case to court only for it to be thrown out. A few years back I found a stray lurcher pup & took it to the local police station as I had nowhere to keep it, later I enquired about it & was told the RSPCA had took it, I rang them & was told if I wanted it I would have to wait six weeks & if not claimed I could have it at £70 for the snip so I spent money on timber & wire mesh for a kennel & run on the last week, when the day came I made the phone call & was told the dog was still there & if I wanted it to fetch it so off I went with the wife & kids & £80, upon arrival I was told I could not have the dog because I lived too close to where it was found & the old owner may recognise it & want it back. No amount of pleading would make them budge & the dog was eventually put down. Thats your friendly RSPCA.........SCUM

Sorry to hear about your experience and I can understand that it left a bad taste after...but they obviously had their reasons.

Great, fantastic that you do. But take them to IB as I said before and you completely ignored and as Quiff has just asked.

Theyre not appropriate on a thread in Rideouts forum.

If you want to discuss the good/bad points of the RSPCA and your opinion of them, do so in IB where people will be more than willing to participate in a debate. If you need to rant, then do so there.

Youve been asked to do so now by two of us, at least have the courtesy to respect that some of us dont think this is the appropriate place to air your views.

Thankyou.

:shock: nightmare..

The run was quite good, my first big run with lots of bikes like that - I think it could've done with being a bit longer - and it was mostly through towns and stuff... (is that normal?)

And there was lots of just milling about eating bbq in the world's smallest beer garden

OH and you gotta go see the Thundersprint on Sunday at Northwich- it is brilliant !!.. a great day out

Yeah, I missed the last easter egg run in stoke - I didn't know about it... I happened to pop into Stoke that day to go to maplins and there were thousands of bikes! Was quite a shock...

It was quite funny though - I was wandering round looking at the bikes, and this non-motorcyclist woman stopped me and asked what was going on with all the bikes - I said I didn't know, I was just wandering round looking... and she looked at my leathers and helmet and stuff and said, "Oh, and they gave you all that?!" :lol: :lol:

Not heard of the thundersprint - what's that? (I suppose I should probably google it)
