Calendar and organising an event

The events listed in the calendar shows different three types of events:

STOMCC: Those are our club meetings and activities where we represent the club and our branch. 

TBC: Events where things still need to be organised and if there is not enough interest, they may become 'FYI' events.

FYI: It's to let our members know what else is going on. 

Events which we organise need a Liability insurance (please see notes) and a Risk assessment. Rides where we meet and ride together to a location need a Risk assessment.

 


Ad hoc rides won't make it into the calendar. Members organise themselves through the private FB or WhatsApp group.

If you wish to plan an event please get in touch with the Social Secretary who will be happy to assist with the planning, and will liaise with the treasurer, if needed, and the webmaster on your behalf to make your event a success.
 

Below is our list of the regular events, but please look up details directly at the events calendar.

Regular events

  • Every 2nd Tuesday of the month is Club night at our HQ the Pickerel Inn
  • Every 4th Tuesday of the month we see to arrange a ride to a different pub in the county to accommodate people who live in different areas of the county.
  • Annual General Meeting: we are hoping to hold our 2022 AGM at the branch HQ
  • Every year we attend the Copdock Show on the first Sunday of September. In 2019 we won best club stand but that is not our aim. We usually organise a little mini-rally around it with camping from Friday, fire-pit, music and the odd drink and dance. Please reconfirm date on the calendar. 
  • Every year we have a Start of Season and End of Season lunch on a Saturday. 
  • Every year in November and April, we organise a pub quiz against the Harley Davidson riders. November at our HQ, April at their HQ
The social secretary will explore the event scene at the beginning of the season and we discuss attendance during our meets. For a lively club life it's quite essential that the membership comes forward with ideas as well as hands on event organisation, and please keep in mind not everything has to do with riding, e.g. we did a bus trip to the Hinkley factory. As mentioned above, please do get in touch with the social secretary for the admin part of things.
