Events Calendar

For the HFS Memorial Run this year, I have arranged for us to lunch again at our traditional venue of the Green Dragon in Bishop’s Frome (WR6 5BP).  The date is Sunday 27th May.  If you want a meal, it would be helpful (but not essential) to book in advance on 01885 490607.  Please book for 12 o’clock and mention the Morgan Three-wheeler Club.  I understand that, this year, the pub will be offering a wider choice of menu.  If we can get away reasonably early after lunch, I plan a short run to another suitable venue for tea and stickies before dispersing for home.

I hope more pleasant weather will tempt some of you out to use your Mogs.

I am contacting you with an invitation. It would be greatly appreciated if you and your members would consider attending this years Coventry Motofest. This is an invitation to come and display your bikes at the country’s largest free to attend automotive festival. It takes place in the heart of the city on the first weekend of June. We have static displays from classic car and motorcycles clubs and owners in the open spaces of the city centre. There is also live action and demonstrations on a section of closed ring road. This year see the event have real racing in the form of timed trials around a street circuit. There is also a live action arena with drifting and other enthusiastic demonstrations. In fact we have something for everyone young and old 2 or 4 wheeled taking place all over the city. We would really love it if you would consider being a part of it. As a club registered to display you get to be right in the heart of the bike section. There is also the option for individuals to register to attend so membership to a club or organisation is not a requirement of attending.

Last year saw over 130’000 people attend the event over the 2 days. With this years added attraction of real competitive racing the expectation for a larger audience is almost guaranteed, weather permitting of course. Due to the layout of the event over the centre of the city the event whilst busy never feels crowded and there will be plenty to see in areas less noisy and busy as folks with the older vehicles are happy to take up space of green areas close to good food and beer outlets.

If you’ve never been to Coventry then this is the perfect excuse to visit our excellent transport museum who will have displays outside the museum as part of their contribution to the event. We also have 2 cathedrals, one modern and one not so which unfortunately suffered devastating destruction during the blitz in 1940. These 3 wonderful attractions are within easy walking distance of all the main attractions of the event itself.

We hope that you will give it some real consideration and would love to see as many of you as possible join us on the first weekend in June (2nd & 3rd). If your wish to attend please go to our website. www.coventrymotofest.com go onto the get involved page and register either as a club or individual. We will contact you with further details in due coarse. It would be worth keeping regular visits to the website to see what news we release as the event draws closer.

Thank you for your time
