As you can see ,there was a record turnout for our informal meeting at the Alma just before Christmas, to say thank you to the Landlord and his staff for their hospitality throughout the year. There was some complaining about the ride in the rain earlier in December,particularly when there had been so many other nice days! The first club night of 2016 was once again well supported, with some twenty members and guests enjoying a pleasant evening,including a Christmas themed quiz from Colin.There were even some bikes! We had met the previous day to look at the seating arrangements for next weeks Dinner.and I was able to report the collection of the engraving for the trophies.We are looking forward to a good evening next week and I shall see you there.Finally, the first ride of the year has been confirmed as a trip to The Victoria, Earl Soham in Suffolk, leaving the Alma, Copford,January 19th, at 10-30. I hope to see some of you there. Safe Riding. Gordon
