The scenic Sychnant Pass
Having been caught in some heavy rain the previous day in Caernarfon (See Caernarfon ride), we decided to return to the area on Sunday 11th July for the Anglesey Ride-out.
The route for this trip was organised by our rides-coordinator, Chris Phillips, as a circuit of Anglesey. This area is well known to me and I do enjoy a ride around the island, providing the weather is fine.
Jan and I, accompanied by Steve D. on his recently purchased 1500, turned up (more…)

Parking on the prom
Sunday May 3rd saw Jan and I getting up early to head out for our first run with Chris as runs co-ordinator – a ride-out starting at The Black Cat Garage to Barmouth.

Where is it?
It is time that I add a few words about a place to eat for the Bikers in general and Wingers in particular (well-known for their liking of food) – The Raven Cafe at Prees Heath.
Following the Stoke Egg Run, a few of us participants decided to stop at the Raven Cafe at Prees Heath, following a recommendation by Nigel and Steve C-P. (more…)
On the BLP
At last the details are available for the Goldwing Light Parade accommodation at Blackpool.
You are advised to book early if you intend to go to this event as by all accounts the accommodation is superior to Pontins by a good margin.
Please visit the website for the Goldwing Light Parade.
The new banner
The club has just taken delivery of a new sail banner for use at events. It is available for any members to take with them to any event that they wish in order to promote the club, if they have the space to carry it.
It is thanks to the grant from (more…)
At long last I have been able to sort out a Welcome Pack for new members to our club. It contains information on a variety of subjects which new Wing owners will find interesting, and hopefully, helpful as well.
It is available as a PDF document within the Members’ Area of the website and details of how to enter there can be obtained from our (more…)
At this late stage, the organisers of the Bike show due to take place 9th and 10th January have had to cancel the event due to the weather conditions.
The event is to be scheduled for later in the year.
