Nacelle Report – Nov 26

Below is the report published in the November 2026 issue of Nacelle, which covered Branch activities in September 2026

For some members the riding season has perhaps come to a close and it’s time to “winterise” the bikes.  Removing batteries, changing fluids, maybe stabilising fuel and applying ACF-50 (similar products are available) to protect those ever so  shiny parts.  For others though, me included, riding bikes throughout winter continues.  It could be on their trusty all-year round steed or a “winter-hack’.  So this is a reminder that the weekly rides continue, so if you fancy getting out check out the Runs App for more details.

A fine display of many makes at the Autumn Bike Meet

Meanwhile, myself and Chris Allam, have been touring the Alsace region in France with 3 pals.  My battered Rocket, Mercury, performed faultlessly for my extended tour in Germany covering over 3000 miles.

Looking forward to indoor activities at the BCSA we have a very popular evening’s entertainment in the form of “Bob’s Quiz”, which will be held on 12th November.  So get a team together and you may well win a fabulous prize.

Ride fast and safe
