May 2022 update 1
Sorry I missed the club night but I hear there was a good turnout despite the weather,and three bikes as well! The Alma made us welcolme withy the new marquee up and running. I gather Uncle Vic is making a good recovery so lets hope we see back with us soon. I must also apologise for not organising a ride this month so far but I may get one in at the end of the month, so keep an eye on Colins e mails. Gordon
April 2022 update 4
First to report Dr Vic is recovering after breaking his leg following a fall at the Pre 65 meeting at Maylandsea. He hopes to be at the clubnight on May 4th. And he would like to thank Steve for all his help since. The ride to Diss proved popular with 9 of us heading off on a devious route with John Swan in the lead. With 3 others joining at Diss, it shows how good that scrap yard is. Chris found an odd sized spanner, but so far hasnt revealed what it fits! The fish and chip run to The Codfathers in Sudbury was well attended with 17 members and 3 guests,and a good night was had by all. Special thanks to Julian and Ali who sorted out a breakdown for Tony, before getting to their supper. The next Club night is May 4th, and Im afraid I cant get there in time to do a pre meeting ride, so if there are any volunteers, please let Colin know ASAP. Gordon

Just a quick update, in case you missed Colins e mail invitations. Day time run to Diss and the famous scrapyard on Wednesday 20th, leaving the Alma at 10-30 am. And I will lead an evening run to the Codfathers Fish and Chips Sudbury, on Thursday 28th leaving the Alma at 7-00pm. Slightly earlier start to make sure we get there in good time! Hope to see you there Gordon
April 2022 update 2
Despite the inclement weather there was another good turnout for the club night with 23 members and 4 guests, and five bikes. Sorry I couldnt take part,but the family have to come first,(so Im told!). there were three other apologies, but its encouraging for the rest of the year to see good numbers. I gather the Alma had been working hard and that the marquee was up and running,and we should thank them for looking after us.John Swann will be taking us back to Diss at the end of the month and I will try to fit a ride in as well. And the pre meeting rides which should have started this month, will definitly go ahead in May. We need to get a fish and chip run in as well so any volunteers ? Colin mentioned the invitation to the Andy Wood memorial ride. We also sent a donation of £100 to Ukraine via the Salvation Army. Please keep an eye out for Colins E mails and this website for the latest information on the clubs activities. Gordon
April 2022 update 1
The April club night venue is all booked and we are looking to see you all there, on Wednesday 6th. It would normally be the first pre meeting ride out, but I cant do it this month. I hope to organise one for May, and If I can I will organise a daytime ride towards the end of April. Watch out for Colins e mails for details. Any volunteers for leading a ride are always welcome! You will all have seen the BMF news about off road riding and its clear that motorcycles are seen as more of a problem than the Four Wheel drive set who do much more damage. Having experianced a lifetime of discrimination against the motorcycling fraternity, its no surprise to me! In anticipation of the unseasonal weather, I managed a ride out on the BMW and the BSA this week. Lets hope thats the last of the snow for this year. Gordon
