Sorry guys! We have had to postpone the Anniversary Vintage Meet, the lack of parking and pit spaces due to the works being carried out by Ryde Council forced us to move this event to Sunday, 13 July 2008. We may still have a normal club meeting on Sunday depending on weather and it may have a vintage class, if required. Stay tuned here and at the forum.

Important Announcement For On Road Racers
