Club welcomes new members at Octobers meeting.

Swallow Hotel

It was great to see everyone at the October meeting, especially Dave Baylis who’s back after a medical procedure. The nice surprise was three new applicants signed up for membership, plus we had a Goldwing owner interested in the club and a visitor who turned up on the spur of the moment. I’m sorry if I don’t mention all your names here  but welcome to Goldwings North West. You caught us with a very busy meeting with lots of reports to get through. It’s not normally that intense. For those who joined and had their photo’s captured, have a look in the members section, you’ll be amongst good company. If you didn’t join the club today, I trust you enjoyed the meeting and had a taste of what the club is about, your welcome to download the application form and send it to the secretary at any time.

See you all at the next meeting or the Salvation Army Toy Run on the 7th November.

Welcome

Taking it easy Goldwing Style

GoldWings North West is a club for Honda GoldWing motorcycle owners in Central Lancashire and the surrounding areas. The Club welcomes GoldWing owners and riders and those who are interested in maybe one day owning and riding a Honda GoldWing. We meet on the last Sunday of the month at the Norman Jepson Hotel, close to Junction 31a of the M6, so we’re easily accessible and handily placed for the wonderful biking roads and scenery of the Lancashire fells and the Bowland Forest. If you own a GoldWing, or are interested in GoldWings and would like to meet like-minded and friendly people, then please come along to our next meeting, you will be made most welcome.

Detail shape’s Light Parade

Light Parade 2006

The final details are now taking shape nicely for this years Blackpool light parade. We have had to manage quite a few problems this year but most of the major hurdles are now sorted. We had positive news from the Police that they can provide us with a Green Light at Squires Gate Traffic lights and also some cover at Gynn Square at the opposite end of the promenade,.  The evening’s entertainment at Pontins promises to be spectacular with plenty of Pontins glamour, plus we will have Knutsford Honda in attendance over the weekend. Lots of other minor stuff to pull together but you couldn’t ask for much more.

The team are really looking forward to welcoming you all to Blackpool again this year. It’s going to be a great weekend   

Display Lighting Workshop 18th April – Bill Squires

Several members took advantage of this workshop and made the journey over to Grimsargh to spend the day in Bills garage. Jim Melia and Pete Rodgers came away happy bunnies after fitting several light systems and switch boxes between them. Personally I acquired every blue l.e.d. light i could find in the place, you never know when they may come in handy. Barbara provided

Social Night – Grimsargh Club 6 March

What a good social night Friday at Grimsargh club turned out to be. Really pleased to see so many members taking the trouble to come along and get to meet each other.
