BMSC DIARY DATES

Postby Jim » Fri Feb 27, 2015 3:35 pm

Here are our Diary Dates for 2015. I will be posting up a reminder with more information as each ride or event approaches.

It's always a very good idea to check on this forum the night before any event or ride just in case any details have altered, such as the meeting place has been changed due to The Arnolfini being cordoned off for a local event!

MARCH

SUNDAY 8TH - Our first 'Second Sunday' of the month meet up! We will be meeting at The Arnolfini at 11:30am for 12:00 departure. We'll be going for a local ride, maybe to Bitton Railway Station for a cuppa tea and a slice of cake!

APRIL

MONDAY 6TH Our traditional Easter Monday ride to WSM! We will be meeting at The Arnolfini at 11:30am for 12:00 departure for a ride to Weston Super Mare. We'll be parking up somewhere along the sea front for some tasty fish'n'chips. Alternatively you can meet up with us there if you like.
IF THE WEATHER LOOKS CRAP FOR THE MONDAY, WE MIGHT DO THIS RIDE ON THE EASTER SUNDAY INSTEAD - WATCH OUR FOR AN UPDATE THE WEEK BEFORE EASTER!


SUNDAY 12TH Second Sunday of the month meet up for a ride to Bath. Maybe onto Bradford on Avon if the weather is good! We will be meeting at The Arnolfini at 11:00am for 11:30 departure.

SATURDAY 25TH BIAMF. A fantastic event held in the Corn Street area! Loads of Italian cars, motorbikes and scooters! Having attended this festival from year one, BMSC have become an important part of the show! You need to have your scooter there before 9:00am. I'll be posting up a reminder of all this a bit nearer the time!

MAY

SATURDAY 2ND Weston Super Mare Rally The rally is on the whole weekend and the following Monday which is a Bank Holiday. We will be meeting at The Arnolfini at 10:30am for 11:00 departure. We'll be looking around the parts fair then maybe have a bit of a ride around to a pub for refreshments.

SUNDAY 10TH
Second Sunday of the month ride to Clevedon / Portishead. We will be meeting at The Arnolfini at 11:00am for 11:30 departure! This one is always a nice ride!

JUNE

SUNDAY 14TH Chew Valley Lake. Meet up at The Arnolfini 11:00am for 11:30 departure for a nice ride out into the countryside. Probably stopping off for a pint somewhere!

SUNDAY 21ST VOLKSFEST A very enjoyable day out with lots of VWs to look at! It's at Washingpool Farm at Easter Compton. Meet up at The Arnolfini at 11:00am for 11:30 departure, or meet us en route or even on site!

AUGUST BANK HOLIDAY
Isle Of Wight or Brighton?

SEPTEMBER

SUNDAY 13TH The second Sunday of the month meet up. We'll be deciding where to go on the day! Maybe ride to a local pub for refreshments or just hang around and chill out! A bit of an 'open to ideas' day! The Bristol Half Marathon takes place on this day, so we won't be able to meet at The Arnolfini as usual so please check out this forum for meeting place details a bit nearer the time!

SUNDAY 20TH Summer Classics Show Held again at Washingpool Farm, a really good day with lots of interesting classic vehicles to see. Meet up at The Arnolfini at 10:30am for 11:00 departure. Alternatively you can meet up with us there!
THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED

OCTOBER

SUNDAY 18TH Hoggin' The Bridge Ride across the Old Severn Bridge with a couple of thousand bikers! Really is good fun! Meet up on The Downs at 10:30am for 11:00 ish departure. We usually just join up with the ride as the bikers filter out of Severn view services!

NOVEMBER

Nothing planned at the moment! Check out this forum nearer the time!

DECEMBER

SATURDAY 5TH Our Xmas Meal. We've had this at The Llandoger for a few years now, and they always look after us very nicely! If anyone can suggest a better place to go, then let us know and we'll have a think!

Other dates may be added as we go through the year, so please keep an eye on this forum for any updates - if you do know of any events we could maybe go to, please let me know! Also watch out for impromptu rideouts posted on this forum.

The weather plays a major factor in the success of any of these dates. Obviously if it is raining cats and dogs on the day, it will affect the number of scooters turning up! However, it's a case of everyman for himself in deciding whether or not to take part on the day!

Looking forward to seeing you all out on the scoots! Fingers crossed for some nice sunny days!
