Another year over and a new one just begun. 2022 was the first full year of activities since the pandemic and we made the most of it. We had around 40 ride-outs, held our Old Motorcycle Gathering show, had two other bike meets and our Branch stand was at half a dozen other events. We met every single Thursday and we hosted the National AGM. Altogether, there were around 100 opportunities to meet up with other Branch members during the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the beginning of December, we joined thousands of other local bikers for the Reading Toy Run in aid of Dr Barnardo\u2019s children\u2019s charity, with some members acting as marshalls, while others took toys on the ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"525\" src=\"http:\/\/www.berkshiretomcc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Berks-Feb-23-toy-run-700.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.berkshiretomcc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Berks-Feb-23-toy-run-700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.berkshiretomcc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Berks-Feb-23-toy-run-700-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Getting together at the start of the Reading Toy Run<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We had a good turnout for our branch night before Christmas.
