BEDS CLUBS East Northants Classic MCC Offers a friendly, welcoming atmosphere; 'where there is no place for egos or bull', just a genuine bunch of sociable enthusiasts with a common interest in bikes, especially anything a little unusual. The Club organises weekday, early evening and weekend rides throughout the year plus weekend and longer tours etc, and while there is a strong interest in bikes from the heyday of the British Motorcycle industry nearly all our members also ride modern machinery therefore the word 'classic' is undefined so you can make up your own mind whether that includes you – as long as you're interested in Classics – it does! The only real rule is that we ride to speed of our slowest machine / rider and always within the <strong>legal</strong> requirements of the road. Meeting place: We meet Tuesday evenings from about 7.30pm at the New Inn, Wymington, Bedfordshire, NN10 9LN (near Rushden). No Membership fees. Web: www.eastnorthantsclassicmcc.com The Mad Hatters The Mad Hatters is a bike club in Luton that meets every Monday except the second Monday of the month at the Globe pub in Latimore Road, opposite the Casino on the flyover. We cater for all types of bike from 125cc to 1000cc and beyond, and it doesn't matter if it’s race rep, custom, classic tourer or trike: all are welcome. Once a year we hold a bike show, which this year takes place on Sunday 19th September 2010, at the Packhorse Inn on the A5 Watling St, Kensworth turn (between Dunstable and the M1).
