 Ride Report 2023 - Dave Master 7th Feb 24

The Members of the CCMC along with guests continued the regular Wednesday adventures from early April to the end of October, covering over 30 rides and other events through Essex, Suffolk and occasionally just into Norfolk. B roads are the preferred route, but regular riders realise that we often venture down lanes where the locals have rarely seen motorcycles.

Several rallies and larger bike meetings were also attended and frequently included the Wednesday evening at Great Bentley Green, which often attracts about 500 bikes.

Above average rain in July, August and October only caused one ride to be cancelled. For 2024 new routes and ventures for lunch and tea will be trialled.
Best regards
