Return of the Scumbags- ALERT:
My name is Alan Aslett and I am the Vice Chairman of Worthing Trials Club. I hope you do not mind me contacting you in this way.
On the 15/16th December my out building was broken into and mine and my sons competition trials bikes were taken. I am passing these details to you and would very much appreciate if you would kindly alert your members or anyone you feel may be able to help or at risk of being offered these bikes. My number is 07973 71 31 91. These bikes were stolen from Dormansland, Surrey RH7.

How to obtain your 2012 Club Membership and ACU Affiliation or Licence:
So that members can obtain their 2012 affiliation or licence on line if they want to, the ACU have changed the way that you can apply. You may have already received your ACU Renewal form but you will need your "Unique Number" from our Club Membership Secretary (Paul Sims) before applying on hard copy or on line. The ACU want to ensure all members have joined an ACU club first.
- Apply to your Paul for renewal of club membership for 2012 in the normal way, paying your membership fee.(£10 adults, £5 youths). The 2012 Club membership form is now available from the page on this site, from Paul or myself, they will also be available at trials and sent with the next newsletter.
- When that is approved and your membership card is returned, you should receive a Unique Number. Paul has been issued with a few hundred "unique numbers", he will issue one number to each member who requires an ACU Licence or Affiliation.
- A: If you are using the Blue ACU Renewal form you have already received, you can complete it in the normal way, but at the end of the form you must enter this Unique Club Membership Code This acts as your "Club Officials Signature", and send the form along with your cheque to the address as shown on the form. For new applicants the form can be downloaded form the ACU website
- B: If you want to apply "On Line" follow the link on the Press release that came with your ACU Renewal If it is your first time, go to the Members Registration box, and click "Register Now" and you will be asked for the "Unique number" during the short process.
- Your Unique Code will take the format of the Clubs ACU Number in the handbook (Thames is 307), followed by a letter and 2 numbers.
- If any of this is not clear, please call me, Bob Brown, Club Secretary 01895 638738 or email Bob Brown
