Hi Tony
Looking forward to another MTM. Will it be starting from Mizen as last year. I know in previous years that it was vice versa.
Thanks
Mike

In the 11 times that MTM has been run since 1999, Malin has only twice ever been the starting point, in 2007 and 2008.

If you're a club member, you'll be receiving your MTM2010 entry form with full details very soon.

A general press release for MTM 2010 has been sent to all relevant clubs, magazines and companies so if you are keen to participate in MTM 2010 then don't be shy and get your entry forms in folks!

If you want to save on postage, then I'll be at the Clonsilla Inn on Sun 3rd Jan for our annual club dinner/quiz, where you can hand your completed entryform & fee to me personally.

Not an IMOC member???
Want to join the other 225 club members who are part of the prestigious and very active IMOC and be eligible for the special IMOC discounted MTM 2010 entry fee??

Of course you do, and its very simple to do so.....

Thanks to those of you who gave me your MTM 2010 entry forms at the New Years Dinner today.
Nice to see a few first time MTM'ers signed up for the experience.

The current list of recieved entries now stands at ......... 15 :D

So, to all those of you out there who are gagging to do MTM 2010, pop your skates on (it's the weather for it!)and get those entry forms filled in and back to me at the MTM Operations Room......... :idea:
(I noticed Joe Conboy sneeking out from the table quiz early to meet Tommy Commanne halfway along the VERY interesting MTM route that they have plotted for us!!!)

For those of you who have given/sent me forms, I'll get your receipts and accommodation booking details to you during the week.

Hey any idea of accomodation prices for the weekend? would love to go but need to figure out things money-wise.

Hi there smur89,

As with previous runs, MTM2010 will be a fun and relatively inexpensive weekend event thanks to the special deals that we have been able to organise with those involved in helping us stage the event.

- Are you an IMOC member?
If you are then entry for the MTM is €50 for the car (this covers a limited breakdown service, route books, finishers awards etc)
You will also be able to join us at any other IMOC organised event throughout the year for free.

- Not in the IMOC?? Entry fee is €60

- Want to join the IMOC?
Click here for details http://www.irishminis.ie/membership/index.htm

Accommodation costs for MTM2010 are VERY reasonable.
In fact, I can honestly say, that you probably won't get the extremely discounted rates anywhere else that we have been able to achieve for hotel rooms.

If you need any more info just drop me an email: antonycooney@gmail.com

Entry Forms and further info about MTM can be downloaded here http://www.irishminis.ie/events/mtm/index.htm

Dont worry if you've not done MTM before, you wont be alone and we are all a very friendly bunch here!
I did it for the first time last year :)

Hope this helps you with a decision.

In around 100 euro for hotels for both nights. Petrol I would gess around the same. (except for Mick glennon who last year caused Ireland to have a fuel shortage for the weekend) then you got food. In which case if you eat like macker you may re morgage your house. Trust me one of the best runs of the year and you got a perfect car for it dude.

Further to the above post about accommodation costs for MTM2010, we have been able to achieve an overall better rate for rooms this year over last year.

Anyone who participated last year and stayed at the hotels each end of the run will be aware of what they paid.
Once you return your entry form/fee, you wil recieve accommodation options, costs and booking proceedures.
