Ghost riders in the sky...

The first meeting of the BSGA Bikers Club was to have taken place on 17th November, at HQ Peterborough. The three founding members had promised to pose for festive pictures in leathers and Santa hats, but on the day Murphy’s Law kicked in and we were left with empty chairs and a single, token crash helmet. What happened to wreck our carefully laid plans?

One poor soul spent the day tucked up in bed with a hot Lemsip and his teddy bear, another’s bike suffered a major mechanical failure en route to the meeting and the third; he got a bad case of stage fright and declined to have his picture taken.

You will be pleased to hear that all three have since recovered from their various ailments and in an attempt to make amends have provided a few pin-up pictures for the delight of their fellow bikers. This was to have been a tongue-in-cheek item, a bit of fun for the festive season, but word got out and, over the last couple of weeks, biking members of the BSGA have been calling to ask how they go about joining the club.

Members signed up so far include… Craig Brown and David Corbett both of Signs Express, Bob Fitzhugh, Hawes Signs and Joe Johnson of Ringway Signs Ltd, Jez Taylor of William Smith & Sons and Ian Turner of Tunewell Juice Group.

We’ve also had a number of suggestions for bike club events, which include a day out at a race circuit, to give members the chance of getting together and showing off their bikes!

If you’re a bike fan who wants to get involved in the BSGA Bikers Club or have suggestions for other days out, we’d love to hear from you. Please send your suggestions to info@bsga.co.uk and we’ll keep you posted on progress through the Newsletter and website.
