2010 saw the delivery of 2 new motorcycles, provided by West London Yamaha. This caused much excitement amongst the instructors, as they helped to unload the shiny new bikes.

The Club and Training Scheme recently reached some important milestones. The Club celebrated its 70th anniversary in Autumn 2008, whilst the Training Scheme celebrated its 60th anniversary in April 2009.

In the afternoon (1.30pm – 4.30pm) we are having an open day at the Training Scheme (for address details please see Training Scheme page). All Club members and pupils (past and present) are invited to come along, reminisce and have some fun. We also celebrate 44 years of the Scheme at Isleworth Town School this year.

In the evening from 7.30pm an anniversary event is being held in Teddington with entertainment and a buffet provided. All past and present members are invited and entry is by advance ticket only (£15 per person).
