On the day over two-hundred bikers on all makes and models of Bikes and Trikes arrived at Roger and Lyn’s home from all over the West Country and even the Midlands and gladly handed over a fiver per bike to take part in the ride.

It was hoped to raised about £1,000 but through the generosity of the bikers and public, about £2,800 was raised by this event.

Mid Wilts had a somewhat slow bike Awareness day at the Fizz bar, Chippenham thanks mainly to the bad weather.
Please feel free to pop along to our weekly meets at the Kingfisher Pub, Chippenham from 8:30 in the Lounge bar.
Bristol MAG
Sadly there will be NO Bristol Bike Show this year due to problems with Bristol City Council! However The Aftershow Party WILL be taking place at the rugby ground on cribs causeway, so watch out for details.
New Webmaster Needed
Later this year Stuart is beginning a course at Bristol University, which will take, up all of his time. And will not be able to carry on maintaining the Bristol MAG web site. So Bristol MAG needs a new web master. There’s not so very much to do. Each month the events page needs keeping up to date, and emails sent to the email list by non-members need moderating. If you could do this work, please contact Stuart.
