Might we have just seen the beginning of the end? The end of having to turn stokers away for not having enough pilots.
Trekker veterans will know only too well that each year there are a number of rides where we often have to resort to arm twisting, bribing and otherwise cajoling pilots to volunteer. And even then there are a few occasions when stokers are stood down
But today’s magnificent turn out of seven signed up new pilots (plus two new stokers) and a further three potential recruits was nothing short of absolutely amazing.
So sincere thanks to everyone who answered the call- newbies and oldies alike- and who made today’s attendance of 28 Trekkers a session like no other.
Let’s hope the weather holds and allows us to finish our season in memorable style.
