I too was one of the party present last year and would gladly welcome some feedback on the 'alleged' threatening behaviour, as my recollection of the evenings events are the same as JW's, however I would add that it was also the same group of people who were wandering around the show ground at 4am 'checking' out car alarms which were sounding to ensure that peoples property was not being damaged or stolen.
if there had been problems of this nature in the past then I feel YLROC should have given consideration to the separation of the camping field as previously suggested.
There will always be a 'difference' of view on 'acceptable behaviour' between those that have families and those that don't and those that are younger and those of more mature years, however without the youth joining in there will be no continuation of the interest in off-roading/shows etc. and will eventually lead to the demise of this life style.
sadly I have to agree with Banditman's final comments and echo those of JW. we were a group willing to give up our time to help ensure the continuation of this local event, however I won't attend anywhere where i am not welcome.

ive read thru this thread with interest...
id be intrigued to know what the unacceptable behaviour was, and where it was... because i saw and heard none at all!! im a member of JW's crew and dont believe that it could be us that were racist and intimidating to others!! everyone has the right to feel safe and unintimidated by anything or anyone!!
i enjoyed last years langley farm very much, the off road course was small but good fun, the show itself was small but good all the same. it was very much a social event and like people have said earlier, some people only get to meet up with friends a couple of times a year at events like this. so obviously they are goin to sink a few beers and socialise.
what is the point in having a beer tent then tellin people not to get drunk!!? i thought that was the general idea of selling alcohol to people!!
at the end of the day we can all have an opinion about how to run things but its not the responsability of anyone except the organisors, and for what it is i think langley was run quite adequately last year... no major dramas, so why raise some dramas now?

Hi everybody it was me who did the drunk rendition of donald wheres your troosers and tbh they all found it funny. Yes I do get drunk lads but I dont start fights or throw up all over the place like some. Also the year before at langley I was also one involved with helping ppl who had been robbed. When there was nobody from YLO to help out or speak to the police.....
Oh btw it was not us last year.....at langley..........
Nobody shouted or asked us to be quiet at all.......
Posts like this get blown out of proportion.... Like Mike Xtremeteam has done with Drumclog. The problem with Drumclog was me calling 1 girl Tina all weekend thats it..... Only because from the start I have been told it was tina and I had that in my head.... Tough if ya dont like it..... Her name was Tracy btw.... All was fine untill we all got home after the weekend and she put a post up mentioning it was IGNORANT of me to call her tina all weekend. Also the post did not say we was not welcome it mentioned if I was to be calling her by the wrong name again then we was not welcome..... Its silly if you ask me..... Sticks and stones and all that crap. Anyway I am not kicking off if ya dont like it dont go.....
You see by putting stupid posts up like this it gets noticed by lots of ppl and then they stop going due to your stupidity. If you know who it is then get them told......Also get someone to stay up at night and tell ppl to chill out if ya having problems......Easy..........Job done.....
