VMCC Coffee Break In Broadwindsor

Just over 50 members of The Vintage Motor Cycle Club gathered earlier today at The Stableyard Restaurant at Redlands Yard.

The motorcyclists come from all over England and Wales and all are participating and are half way through the Weymouth Run which started on Sunday, 12th May. Organised by Rod Hann, the run ends on Friday, 17th after covering a total run of almost 450 miles, averaging approximately 75 miles/day. Each day takes in stops at local interesting places and of course… somewhere for refreshments 🙂

For the enthusiasts... below some of the bikes that parked up today.

Nationally, The Vintage Motor Cycle Club Limited was formed in 1946 by a band of 38 enthusiasts and membership today stands over 16,000 – but this has been achieved without losing any of the camaraderie or helpfulness which is usually associated with smaller clubs. You do not have to own a historic motorcycle or three-wheeler in order to join the VMCC, just an interest in these machines.

The Dorset Section is a local section of the national organisation, first set up in 10th March 1966 and now meet on the second Wednesday of the month, where they have guest speakers, quiz nights, social meets and a few outside events during the summer months. In the present day, the Dorset Section is an active group which runs a busy calendar of events throughout the year, comprising of short local rides and longer rides into the neighbouring counties.


If you would like to know more and perhaps be involved in next year’s Weymouth Run – please visit: https://dorsetvmcc.co.uk for more information or follow them on Facebook HERE.

Thank you to Run Leader Carol for her help and Safe Travel to you all!
