Below is the report published in the July 2023 issue of Nacelle, which covered Branch activities in May 2023
It’s a long way to reach Killarney, to be sure!! But the lads from the Branch were riding there all the way from Berkshire, and it were grand. They were riding the Wild Atlantic Way each day, while drinking Guinness and listening to fiddly diddly music each night!! Grand craic!!! They got to be kissing the Blarney stone, so they did. One eejit even tried Irish dancing!! Nine days and nearly 1500 miles of riding they were doing. It were grand weather too with hardly any rain. What a fantastic week!!! T’anks to yer man, Collin, for organising it.
Back in Berkshire there were two grand Sunday rides. One to Popham Airfield and one to T’ruxton. The last one had 17 bikes, which all kept together and no-one got lost. A few Branch members went on the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride.
The Berkshire lads took the Branch stand to a launch day at Bulldog Triumph, the local dealer. It was a warm day, with an amazing barbeque and music. Lots of customer’s came to view the new bikes for sale and got to be learning about the TOMCC at the same time. There was a lot of interest in the club from customers and yer man from Bulldog was happy too.
The lads will be having the annual Branch barbecue on 13 July at their regular T’ursday club night so to be sure to be coming along!! It’ll be grand, so it will!!
Enjoy the craic!!
