We had dry sunny weather for our Lunchtime Bike meet on the 28 September. We had an interesting collection of about 80 bikes on show and with the bar open and a good selection of hot food available it was a fun afternoon. A great way to round off the bike show season. Here are some photos of the event.

Watching the racing on the main straight

We were at Thruxton for the entire weekend of the British Superbikes Championship, Friday through to Sunday in August 2024. We had our own stand there which we set up on the Thursday afternoon so it was ready for the whole three day event. We had a display of around 15 bikes there for each of the three days. Our members took it turns to man the stand, so everyone had an opportunity to see everything else at the event, including some racing.

We had a great time. See some photos below of the weekend.

See the video below for some great shots of the bikes we had on display on our stand.

The TOMCC’s 75 Anniversary Celebration at Shelsley Walsh Hill Climb Circuit was attended by over 1000 people, including visitors from overseas Triumph Owners Clubs. More than 90 people rode their bikes up the historic hill climb track. We had a Branch stand at the event.
