11th/12th
April - the Somerset sections Cheddar weekend
Rob and his 1959 MAC went off across the Severn for the 60th
Anniversary Cheddar Trial. There was a good turn out on
the Saturday for the social run. We headed off down the main road
towards Wells before cutting along minor roads towards
Glastonbury. The Tor could be seen in the distance. Heading
through rural Somerset we were caught in one shower but were soon on
dry roads to our lunch stop at Keinton Maderville. In the afternoon we
crossed the Levels and called in to the Avalon Marsh Centre for a visit
to reconstructed Iron Age, Saxon and Roman Houses before returning to
Cheddar. The Sunday Road Trial saw over 40 bikes present,
including a good selection of flat tankers. The long route of 45 miles
took us over the Levels to Taunton and Westonzoyland for some road test
skills. After this, we recrossed the Levels towards Mark and Stoughton
before finishing at Cheddar. We were lucky with the weather. One shower
on route and hail and rain as we finished. Two good days and a chance
to catch up with friends, Les and Shirley and Julian from other
sections.
Here's a few photos of the event.
2nd March
- buffet and presentation evening
2nd
February
Our AGM was dealt with fairly quickly, with the accounts looking very
healthy and the committee being re-elected en-bloc. Nothing much to
report on the previous years activities. The Annual prize giving was
agreed for the 2nd March and a buffet will be provided - please come
along if you can. The meeting will take place in the small lounge at
the Llanharry club.
