SUMMARY:The Dorset Dakar
DESCRIPTION:The Dorset section are pleased to announce the inaugural staging of their off-road event- \nThe Dorset Dakar! \nDesigned to be a gentle-ish introduction to riding trails and very much with the novice rider in mind\, you are invited to join us for 10.00am (with an 11:00am departure) on Saturday 17th September at Compton Abbas Airfield Café. Riders will be sent off in buddy pairs with the route comprising a mixture of on and off-road sections (several novice volunteers\, riding a variety of bikes\, have already tested this run\, fear not!)\, with part-way refreshments provided by Dorset section and finishing at the Fox and Goose pub in Coombe Bissett for a well-earned drink! \nThe outward route is approximately 28 miles\, with a number of bail-out points should you decide it’s all too much and would rather head straight to the pub finish. The return route can be the reverse or\, if you prefer\, there is a picturesque road route from Coombe Bissett back to the start via the Ebble valley taking in Broad Chalke\, West End\, Alvediston and Berwick St John. \nPlease\, carry on and read the FAQs and the Do’s and Don’t below\, but if you decide you would like to take part in this event\, we would like to get an idea of expected numbers\, so please email the Secretary@dorsetvmcc.co.uk. \nFinally\, this event is subject to good weather.  If it rained all the previous week\, some of the tracks would be very muddy.  So please do check this website before turning up at the airfield of the 17th. \nFAQs: \nDo I need to be an experienced off-roader to participate?  Absolutely not! We encourage riders of all abilities to have a go and it is aimed at novices. A lot of the off-road section is over well-surfaced trails and any really tricky sections can usually be crossed walking alongside your bike\, if necessary. \nDo I need a pukka off-road bike? We feel that any lighter weight road bike with reasonable ground clearance should be able to participate with care. Of course\, trail-type machines remain the ideal choice. Feel free to ask the run organisers for their advice. \nIs it a race?  Absolutely NOT! The idea is for members to enjoy an off-road riding experience\, taking as much time as necessary to complete the course\, or as much of it as they feel comfortable with. \nHow many routes are there? There is only one route for 90% of the run. However\, the final part of the run (3 miles) splits into three final sections depending on your skill level: Beginner (tarmac)\, Intermediate (rough ground) or Expert (ford and narrow\, overgrown hill climb). \nWill there be a route sheet? At the start\, the OS Map 184 (Landranger Series) will be available for inspection. In addition\, the route will be marked on the morning of the run with triangle direction markers. SatNav GPX files will also be available. \nDo I need a VMCC eligible bike to take part?  It is preferred but not essential. \nCan family and friends watch?  Of course\, the route is clearly marked and everyone is welcome to join in at the pub. \nDoes my bike need to be Taxed and Insured?  Yes. All the byways and roads are classed as public roads\, so your bike needs to be legal. \nCan I park my trailer / van / motorhome at the start?  We hope so\, but we do not yet have permission to do this.  Please check back here nearer the time. \nDo’s and Don’ts \n\nDo be courteous to other trail users\nDo give way to all other trail users\nDo wear appropriate clothing\nDo stop and take lots of photographs\nDo enjoy our en-route hospitality\nDo fill up with petrol beforehand (nearest petrol is in Barford St Martin SP3 4AD)\nDo provide your own recovery as the Section is unable to help. Breakdown recovery vehicles will not be able to access certain parts of the route. It is suggested you ride in buddy pairs.\nDon’t speed along- it’s not a race\nDon’t have an excessively loud exhaust- it irritates other trail users

SUMMARY:Veteran & Vintage Run
DESCRIPTION:Now in its 43rd year\, our Veteran  & Vintage Run takes place on Sunday 25th September at 10:30am from Leigh Village Hall. \nAs in previous years\, Rod Hann is bound to come up with a very enjoyable route\, but please note\, the run is only for pre-1931 vehicles.  By all means come along to the start and watch\, but if you want to take part in the run\, you had better brush the cobwebs off your vintage or veteran bike. \nThe run is about 43 miles in length with a coffee stop en-route.  Coffee and tea is also being served at the start. And after the run\, Carol Hann is serving homemade lunch for those that want it at £5 / head — if you would like lunch\,  it would be helpful if you could pre-book with Rod and Carol using the contact details below. \nThe Section is asking for a contribution of £3 towards run expenses. \n\nPhotos of the 42nd Veteran & Vintage Run\nPhotos of the 41st Veteran & Vintage Run\nPhotos of the 40th Veteran & Vintage Run
