Quiz Night – 2023

We’ll be holding our annual quiz night at our Thursday Club Night on 9 November 2023 at the BCSA.

Once again, quiz master, Bob Cromwell will be testing our knowledge with questions on motorcycle related topics and general knowledge. Prizes will be awarded at the end of the evening for the winning team.

You don’t have to form a team in advance, just come along. Teams often get formed on the night, typically around three or four people each. You can also participate as an individual if you want. It’s a great way to get to know other people and have a fun evening.

See here for some photos of last year’s quiz.

Proceedings will kick off around 8.30pm so get there before that so you can get your team together and get yourself a drink from the bar.

Rawles Open Day – Oct 23

Sparkling Austin Healeys at Rawles

We had a Saturday ride to an open day at Rawles, the Austin Healey specialist. They had a magnificent collection of beautifully restored and enhanced Austin Healey’s to look at. There were a lot of impressive classic cars to look at brought by other visitors as well. Their workshops were open and there were staff on hand to talk about the processes they go through in taking the rusty remains of old cars and transforming them into the shiny finished beauties. With a barbecue cooking hamburgers and tea and coffee on offer, we had a great time. Here are some photos of the event.
