FRIENDS OF THE NATIONAL MOTORCYCLE MUSEUM RIDE BROUGHS!
Posted on
One of the most important aspects of the National Motorcycle Museum friends’ scheme is giving its members the chance to take part in some unique activities that just wouldn’t be possible otherwise. Some of this unique content includes the chance for museum friends to ride some of the best bikes in our inventory!
NMM Friends Classic Bike Tour Day.
Saturday 25th March saw eight museum friends scheme members having the opportunity to ride some of the most exciting and valuable classic motorcycles from the museums inventory.
Those taking part received an induction and “off road” training before being escorted by ex-police motorcyclists/IAM instructors around the beautiful Warwickshire countryside.
Riding via Henley in Arden and other local beauty spots our riders enjoyed various exotic machinery including a Brough Superior SS100 and a Norton Rotary F1!
Each class of machine attracts a different “hire” fee which includes insurance cover and lunch in the museum restaurant. The next tours date we have planned is Saturday 17/06/17.
NMM Friends “Ride a Classic” Weekend.
Saturday 1st & Sunday 2nd April saw no less than 100 museum friends scheme members having the opportunity to ride a diverse range of classic motorcycles from the museums inventory in our first “ride a classic” weekend of 2017.
The days were split into two with twenty five friends pre-booked onto either morning or afternoon sessions which gave everyone the chance to sample all of the ten machines on offer.
Museum friends were treated to a host of exotic machinery including a BSA Goldstar, Sunbeam Model 9, Ariel Cyclone 650cc and even an ex-WD 1940 Triumph!
In addition to their annual membership fee the day cost museum friends just £10.00 per rider to help cover insurance costs. The next “ride a classic” day we have planned is Saturday 13/05/17.
