(News about members, and general comments. Feel free to forward any news of interest)

1. The last two Sunday rides have been blessed with good weather, so turnout has been 18-20 bikes. Including several new or recent riders which is pleasing to see. Keep an eye on the Calendar for upcoming rides.

2. We are trying something different for this Sundays ride - by deliberately including some unsealed road sections for those who like to get dirty !

3. This months Social Night also saw a good number of people (~ 20 ?) enjoy the night. This also included several new faces, so we hope to see them again.

4. 'International Members': Steve Bailes has been enjoying a tour with Adriatic MotoTours in the central/eastern Europe area (apparently the beer was good !). Also been spotted in old haunts in the UK, and must be due home soon. Pat R, Colin V, Alf D are off on an (annual it seems like) tour in July, to Norway and about. Looking forward to preserved Lutefisk and brown sheep cheese no doubt.

5. 'Local Members': Andrew K is recovering well from a badly broken elbow. He is rumoured to have been seen riding his 660 Yamaha locally. Reece likes the Nikens so much he has added a newer model to the garage, but has been told the 800 BMW has to go !
