It's all stepping stones and prioritising... having 10 people bashing around a field will start it off, as long as they tell their mates and so on... and as long as you cover costs, creating fun and making friends is the aim

I guess our club is lucky that we already have AMB with 10 handouts and several grand in the bank along with a average turnout of 18 racers every week.

Our outdoor venue currently costs us a measly £20/week which makes it very profitable. Indoors is now setting us back £47.50/week as this is in the local school. The venue is perfect for us as we have a shed on site to store our track and AMB in and the canteen provides tables and chairs and mains so you couldn't. ask for more really.

Our permanent venue would instantly free up £400 from what we'd spend anyway racing outdoors and then combine that with a few larger weekend meetings and we should easily raise the £1000 for the rent.

At the moment it's still a pipe dream, but I'm sure we'll get the ball rolling shortly.

This thread is golden

Can't believe how cheap your rents are at A1 and Ludlow Guess it matters where you are located in the UK. It's all very much more expensive darn sarf.

Our old venue wasn't too bad for rent but not great facilities, the new place a big fat wedge more and is wicked. We've got some good idea's to improve it further more.

Hat's off to all who run a club or put money into starting a club. People are all to quick to criticise but they have no idea of the time and effort involved.
