ROAD RUNS
Throughout the year, as well as Trials and Scrambles, we organise road runs.
Road Run costs: £5 members.
£10 non-members.
Non-members joining the club on the day £15.
Our road runs are a chance to show off your bikes, meet new people, exchange information and discover some of Dumfries and Galloway's stunning countryside.
Full details and entry forms, including starting times and locations etc, will be available prior to each event keep an eye on our website and facebook page.
Road Runs 2023
Our 2023 Road Runs start in May and run until October and will be on the first Sunday of the month. There is a mixture of long and short runs which hopefully will appeal to more of our membership. Longer runs being approximately 200 + miles and shorter runs up a maximum of 120 miles.
We ask for a £5 per bike donation from club members and £10 from non-members. These donations are to help fund administration costs and club events in 2023, and without your kind donations and membership fee there would be no Galloway Motorcycle Club.
You can join the club at any Road Run event. Annual membership is £15 for the year (January to December) with under 12 years of age just £5.
This year the club’s chosen charity is ‘My Name is Doddie’, funding research into finding a cure for Motor Neurone Disease (MND).
