We rode out to Thruxton Airfield and had breakfast at the Jackeroo Cafe there.
Here are some photos of the ride

It was a very cold, but dry and bright Sunday morning, so six of us put on our winter riding gear and set off on a ride through the twisty country lanes of West Berkshire and Wiltshire to finish with a breakfast at TJ’s Cafe near Swindon, which is on the site of a wartime Spitfire factory.



It was cold, but it wasn’t raining, so we set off for Wycombe Air Park. There were a lot of wet roads and a few floods to navigate but we all got there ok. Nice cafe with a view of helicopters taking off.


Our first ride of 2023 was on 2 January, which was a Bank Holiday. It was wet, so we had a short ride to Popham Airfield and refreshments at the Spitfire Cafe there.



Our last ride of the year was on the 21 December to Milbury’s at Beauworth for lunch.



We had a good day out at the annual Reading Toy Run organised by Reading Christian Motorcyclists in aid of Dr Barnado’s. We supported the event in a number of ways, with our gazebo being used as part of the toy collection point, a number of our members acting as marshalls and a ride-in to the start of the run for our members. Here are some photos of the day.
