“THE COLOUR SUPPLEMENT”
Following appreciative comments about the colour photos in last month’s Bush News, here’s some more of
recent club events. The online/email version has had colour photos throughout for some months now, so to
benefit from full colour every month please choose to receive your newsletter that way instead of by post.
JUNE CLUB NIGHT
The excellent weather drew out a lot of members, friends and motorcycles. These two caught your editor’s
eye in particular. On the left is a replica of a Benelli 500/4 racer and on the right an unusual Yamaha FZX,
a model that I’d never seen before as I think they were never officially imported into the UK.
CARDING MILL VALLEY MID-WEEK MEET
Another well attended club event, one of the busiest mid-week meets yet, again it was probably the
weather that encouraged so many to come and have a chat and a snack at this beautiful National Trust site.
Members arrived on a wide variety of motorcycles ranging from David Leppard’s new model BMW
F800GT to Eddie & Sheila Whittingham’s faithful old Douglas and Velocette.

THE WOLF RUN
As most of you know I like my wildlife: kites,
ospreys and wolves in particular. So it was with
great pleasure that I lead yet more interested
members into ‘The Valley of the Wolf’ to visit Wolf
Watch UK’s sanctuary again. We were met and
given a short talk by Tony, our host, before we were
taken on a stroll through his valley. We were told
about the badgers, red deer, visited the pond and had
our first sight of the wolves. Tony got them howling
(and us!) – It still seems strange standing in the
English countryside listening to wolves howling!
The Valley of the Wolf
We then met Kgosi, a 130lb grumpy male, and his
sister Madadh, a mere 90lb! While we stood outside
their compound, Tony went inside and had some
‘play time’ with them – well he did bring them up
from pups! Play time over we then met Callow and
had a brief sight of Poppy who is very shy and
doesn’t like men. Next we came upon Pepe who was
enjoying the sun. He really is a very pretty boy but is
a very free spirit so must be respected!! Then it was
off to meet Madadh again, hand feed her treats and
make a fuss of her. Even after 5 visits it is still a
great thrill to have a pure bred 90lb wolf taking food
from your hand.
Play time!
Hello Madadh
Is that lead strong enough?
After a brew we took our leave of the Valley of the Wolf and headed for the Watering Hole café for tea and
scrummy cake. A big thank you for coming and supporting Wolf Watch – I trust you enjoyed your visited.
Thank you also to Tony for giving us a great afternoon and to Lynn for without her we would not have known
about this Valley of the Wolf. I for one will be returning, so if there are enough of you who fancy another visit
let me know and I will try to arrange one in 2014.
(Bigfoot).

CHAIRMAN’S WITTERING
Well what a few weeks, enjoyable Sunday runs, June Club Night was the best this year and one of the best
for a long time, excepting the annual Open Night, talking of which is our next Big Event on July 3rd.
Everything is organised and we are praying for a nice balmy summer evening, be there early to bag a good
spot – See you there!
Charity Run: What can we do to encourage more club members to this annual event? Thank you to the
members who entered and had a thoroughly enjoyable day out and thank you to Sue Price who must have
spent a considerable amount of time out and about collecting clues and checking the route. So let’s have
some suggestions please, remember this event is to raise funds for your chosen charity which this year is
for the Wales Air Ambulance which incidentally covers Herefordshire as well as the Midlands Air
Ambulance. Please email your suggestions to [email protected] or speak to one of our committee
members.
(Terry Bass).
PRESIDENT’S PLATFORM
We chose to do the Bob Bufton Memorial Run organized by the VMCC, mostly to pay our respects to Bob
and also it seemed the ‘easy option’ – a half day gentle 60 mile ride around the lanes of Pencombe and
Bromyard as told by to Colin Osbourne……
It was a beautiful day. At the start we were issued with run sheets as they do in the VMCC, but with no
mention of Pencombe. After reading the second page we eventually found lunch was at Dylife near
Machynlleth. Well, we’ll go for it we thought. Journey to coffee at Knighton via Orleton Common and
Goggin was superb. Lanes we never knew existed and scenery to die for. Coffee to lunch was ‘interesting’
to say the least. For example the route sheet used the words “loose gravel and sheep”, “steep hill through
ford”, “not suitable for large vehicles”, “hills under dark trees”. This gives no idea of the actual terrain!
We got lost several times – Chris was gripping on so tight trying not to slide into me or fall off the back
there was no way she could read the route as well! However at about 1.30pm we found the Star Inn and a
very pleasant remote spot it was too.
To cut a long story short, after lunch about 3 miles on we broke down on the Triumph T110. We waved
the rest on by – no problem, we had our modern technology mobile phones didn’t we? Having decided it
couldn’t be mended on the spot I decided to phone for recovery. No signal, no network! So Ron sends
Chris to this isolated farmhouse to use their landline. No one in! But a puppy dog arrives out of nowhere
looking for a friend and proceeded to follow us to the main road to try to get run over.
After thumbing for a lift for some time a van stops and Ron throws Chris in the back with this delightful
hippy family including three kids and six chickens flying loose. They take her back to the Star Inn and
leave her – they’re in a hurry. Eventually someone comes grumpily to the door and lets her use the
landline. Recovery reported, but now how to get back to Ron and the bike? Chris set off walking but the
young waitress appeared and said she’d phone her mum to give us a lift. Back with Ron, there’s now
another car with a young couple – they nearly run over the puppy and insist on taking him home with them
to keep him safe. Another hour later they returned with a ‘Not Happy Dad’ saying there’s no way they’re
keeping the dog and left him again. Soon a kindly RAC man arrived and trailered the bike home.
Every cloud has a silver lining. The recovery driver turned out to be a trained motorcycle mechanic. We
told him about a problem with our Yamaha outfit back at home. He immediately diagnosed the problem as
needing a new ignition ballast resistor. After three weeks getting the original off this has now been fitted
and we’re back on the road.
The moral of this story maybe: a) go on Terry’s run next time: b) don’t listen to Colin Osbourne: c) take a
map (we didn’t think we’d need one going to Pencombe!!).
(Ron & Chris Moore).

AUGUST NEWSLETTER DEADLINE
Due to the printer’s holiday all items for the August newsletter must reach me no later than the
committee meeting on 10th July. This includes any run reports, photographs, advertisements etc.
If you are organizing a run please make sure Sue Price has your run sheet before that date too.
(Will Morgan, email: [email protected] or via the club: [email protected] ).
SECRETARY’S SNIPPETT
Our ‘Top Box/Car Boot Sale’ was good in that loads of people turned out, but not many bothered to bring
items to sell. Perhaps you don’t think this is a good idea? Let us know! Thanks to Trevor Ruth for bringing
his tannoy system, we will use it again at Open Night.
In memory of Bob Bufton the club has donated £25 to St. Richard’s Hospice in Worcester. We all enjoyed
Dave Peake’s ‘Postman Pat’ run, well documented in last month’s newsletter. Again the club donated – a
raffle prize of a £10 Marks & Spencer for the two respective charities. Despite the economic gloom we
have just topped the 150 total of club members. Thanks to Lynn Longman in her first year as membership
secretary.
Well done to Alan Spencer for organizing the May mid-week meet – fantastic scenery and venue – and
really good value and very tasty food. Alan was the instigator of these mid-week meets for those who can’t
attend Sunday events and he has been to just about every one. It was particularly good to see Dave
Leppard turn up, all the way from Machynlleth (riding through snow – in May!!) and hope to see more of
you Dave.
(Chris Moore).

NEWS SNIPPETTS
Welcome to new club members Martin Cowell and John Hargreaves (good to have you back John!) and
we look forward to seeing you both at future club events.
June club night was one of the busiest for years. It was our ‘Bring and Buy Top Box Sale’ but perhaps it
was the fantastic warm sunny weather that really attracted the huge crowd of members and their friends?
The raffle prizes were donated by ‘The Old Rockers’, Mike England, Len Bullock, Alan Kiley and Tony
Adamson. According to her husband the ‘Raffle Person’ was ‘Mrs Bass’ who of course we all know better
as ‘Raffle Babe Frances’. With so many members present she managed to raise £61.58p. As always thank
you all! It is a most important contribution to our club funds.
Charity Treasure Hunt Run: Terry Bass has reported that £125 was raised for the Wales Air Ambulance.
Well done to everyone who took part!
New club shirts: There has been little response to last month’s offer of new club shirts, so we will have to
carefully consider if it is viable to go ahead or not – so lets us know if you want one!
Rusty metal time again: It’s our local autojumble at Ross on Wye cattle market on 20th July.
Steel Horse Café: I mentioned this new bikers café in last month’s News Snippetts and on Dave Peake’s
run we tried it. It’s about 3½ miles from Abergavenny on the B4598 to Usk and is really rather nice –
definitely a great improvement on a lot of establishments that claim to welcome motorcyclists. We were
too late to try their meals, but the refreshments we did have – teas, beers* & biscuits – were reasonably
priced (*Yes, as an ex-pub it is licensed but when we were there they only had bottled beers). Anyone who
makes the effort to cater specifically for the motorcycling fraternity deserves to be supported so why not
call in? – even if it’s just to admire the rather smart Triton on display in the bar!
Make your own rubber: I am told you can now buy a product called ‘Sugru’ which is ideal for repairing
or making small rubber ancillary components for motorcycles (Note: it is probably unsuitable for
mechanically or safety critical parts!). It is like play-dough or plasticine which can be moulded to shape in
your fingers and will ‘cure’ overnight into flexible silicone rubber. It is available at B&Q and costs £8.00
for either a pack of black only or 5 colours (red, yellow, blue, black & white).
Free tea & biscuits: In New South Wales Australia to help reduce crashes caused by driver fatigue a
biscuit company is sponsoring community groups, local emergency & breakdown services etc. to provide
road users with free tea, coffee and biscuits. The scheme is supported by the state government and operates
over bank holidays and other busy times at various ‘Driver Reviver’ sites throughout the state.
A track of your own? The world famous Nurburgring has run into financial problems with debts
estimated at €400m and is up for sale. The 12.8 mile circuit with 73 bends nicknamed ‘The Green Hell’
could be yours for a paltry £100m. But any new owners would not be liable for the debts and would
benefit from the estimated £50m annual turnover generated by various motor sport events and activities, on
site research facilities and of course public track days.
And after buying the Nurburgring…..you might want to buy a bike to ride on it with the spare change
you have left. Peter Williams is manufacturing a limited edition of 25 replicas of his ground-breaking
1970s Norton monocoque racers. A snip at £65,000 each!

CHARITY TREASURE HUNT RUN
I would like to thank the organisers of this year's
Charity Treasure Hunt - it was a thoroughly good day
out. I took my old 1932 Blue Star, complete with its
original Sat Nav fitment (though some wouldn't believe
me and say they weren't invented back then!). BSA
were pioneers in the field of invention, their bikes even
had 'Anti- lock' brakes too. I covered 111 miles
altogether and enjoyed gathering up the clues at the
interesting locations, (they even had a bit of background
history to them on the direction sheet too). I love this
event- you can go on your own as I did (Billy No Mates)
or team up, and you get to see others as you go around
too. So, well done the organisers and here's looking
forward to next year.
(Steve Worth).
2014 PRESCOTT BIKE FESTIVAL
We have been invited back to Prescott next year for the Bike Festival (see below). This year was their best
to date despite the cold start to the day and they are hoping next year will be better still. As the year goes
on I will keep you informed but I do know that already MotoGP and World Super Bike star Carlos Checa's
works 4 Cylinder Ducati the same as Casey Stoner won the World Championship on has already been
entered. If you haven't heard this thing in the real it will be worth the entry fee alone. I can guarantee you
would hear it in the next county! It is loud!
(Terry Bass).
Invite from the organisers of The Prescott Bike Festival April 6th 2014:
“I’d like to formally invite the Leominster Classic MC to join is for what is promising to be our best
Festival yet. I can offer you overnight camping (if required), a pitch size as you have taken before,
two runs up the hill as the ‘Leominster Classic Stars’ during Happy Hour and space in our Supporters
web page that would allow you to some 100 words or so to promote the Leominster Classic MC. I would
like to extend the supporters webpage free of charge although any donation you would wish to make to the
charity would be gratefully received. I can block book out Run the Hill places for you at normal rates (all
held at 2013 prices) for any of your members wishing to take to the hill”.

BOURTON ON THE WATER / COTSWOLD MOTOR MUSEUM RUN
A few days before this run I found myself suffering from motorcycle withdrawal symptoms, a free day and
fine weather so decided to ride off and double check one or two bits of my route to Bourton that I wasn’t
very familiar with. It was good thing I did! My route was to use a pretty little lane that is the only one
across a remote part of Gloucestershire wilderness. This goes over a little level crossing with no other way
of crossing the main railway line for miles in either direction. Arriving there on this pre-run
reconnaissance I was confronted by notices that due to ‘infrastructure improvements’ the level crossing
would be closed on the day of my run. Darnation! – or ‘similar exclamation’, but at least I knew we would
have to use a longer main road route – I cannot imagine it would have been popular to have to re-trace our
steps quite so far, even if it was a very pretty little lane!
Now to the day of the run – on the run sheet I had said it was a suitable run for older motorcycles as long
as they could cope with some long steep hills. Above Stanway there is one – a long twisting road up
through Newhill Wood on to the top of the Cotswold plateau. Showing everyone how it should be done I
unleashed all 18½ of my Moto Guzzi Falcone’s horsepower and romped up the hill with Neil in hot pursuit
on his 98 horsepower BMW. After a few of the bends I looked back and saw no one was behind us, so
slowed down. Half a dozen more bends and we were still alone. After a couple more bends, by now at
almost walking pace, we pulled into a lay-by and waited. After we had waited some more – quite a lot
more – Neil turned back to see where everyone was. I carried on waiting some more until I felt lonely and
turned back down the hill myself. Sure enough almost immediately the others passed by – it was now their
turn to wait in the lay-by until I could turn round and take up the lead again. It transpired Denis had had
dirty fuel problems (you know the old joke: “S**t in the carb? How do you do that?”) but once the float
bowl had been drained his Triumph was running sweetly again.
I knew Bourton on the Water is a tourist trap but when I booked the date for the run I hadn’t realized it was
a Bank Holiday weekend – and had only hoped for good weather – but on such a sunny day we arrived to
find the town heaving. It was rammed to the gunnels with coach loads of tourists – and it seems it is a
popular place for natives to set up picnic chairs and tables on the village green to spend the day gawping at
‘Johnny Foreigner’ too! It was a relief we were allowed to park on the museum’s forecourt as every other
space was full. Outside the museum, from the swarm of humanity appeared a familiar leather clad figure –
it was Frank. He said he’d been looking for us. He’d looked for us at the run start – unfortunately the
wrong run start at Leominster not Hereford. Phoning home confirmed his mistake, so he then rode to look
for us at the morning coffee stop at a garden centre near Newent – unfortunately the wrong garden centre
near Newent! So now he’d found us was he going to come into the museum with us? No, he’d been
before! But he did say he had enjoyed his little 125 mile chase around Gloucestershire ‘looking for us’!
The museum? Well it’s packed full to
the rafters (literally!) with interesting
relics of the last century or more of
motor transport, and jolly decently they
let us in cheap although there wasn’t
really enough of us to qualify for the
group discount. I hope everyone enjoyed
it, and I can recommend it to any petrolhead of ‘a certain age’ as it will have
something hidden away somewhere to
bring memories flooding back.
(Will Morgan).
