calendar page
Briefly they are:
April - The Black Cock, Caerphilly mountain

July - Red Lion, A48, Bonvilston
August - Creigiau Inn, Creigiau
September - The Farmers Arms, Aberthin
4th
December
There
is a mistake in the section notes in the December journal -
the
"day after Boxing day run" is not to start anywhere at all. It is
simply a ride from the riders home to the Red Lion on the A48 in
Bonvilston to arrive around 12 noon.
Another calendar change is to
the Cheddar weekend - due to a clash of dates with the Cotswold section
Felix Burke trial, the Cheddar weekend has been brought forward a week
to the 30th/31st March. That gives us a small problem in that
we
have the Spring run listed for that weekend. I do not propose that we
amend our calendar, so unless annouced here, the Spring run will take
place on the 31st as listed.
LAST CALL FOR THE DINNER - PLEASE GET IN TOUCH QUICKLY, IF YOU WISH TO
COME AND HAVE NOT DECIDED YET.
26th
November
I've now added most events to the events calendar in the Lounge. If
anyone spots a mistake or has anything to add, then please get in
touch. The 23rd June is a busy day with 5 events listed, including our
'Remember the Dragon'. If you have a few minutes then please complete
the FBHVC survey on the costs of
owning and running an old vehicle - it's not too onerous and is
important for the FBHVC to analyse the state of the old vehicle
movement in the UK.
I've deleted the old Cotswold section newsletter button from above as
the Newsletter ended with the last one from Reg Eyre in December 2017.
I still have the copies, so if there is one that you'd like, I can
email it.

Well
done to everyone who attended the club last night for the charity
auction. It was a good night which raised £400 from the sales - amiably
run by Rob, with John as backup. We also had £105 of cash donations
from Barry, Roger, Bob and two non-members one of whom was
present and wanted to
contribute. Barry's gold plated pickle onions produced £111 - they
do have a secret ingredient I'm told, and are well worth the
cost.

Last
nights BBQ went off very well, especially as the weather was very good.
We had two new members attend, which was a real positive. We
were down on numbers a bit at something like 40 odd, but much
of
the grub went, which means that I don't have to eat burgers for the
next two weeks.
Some of us are off to Ireland on Friday, so
this is a reminder for the "Follow the Velo" run on Sunday the 15th -
10.00 am meet at the Caerphilly Mountain Cafe for a 10.30 start.
