How about a ride to the Middy where there will be a Suffolk Craft Fair?
This is one of our ‘turn up if you feel like it’ Steam (yes, it should be back to steam now) Sundays where you take a chance on how many of us (if any) will be there.

Visit to the Harwich Redoubt Beer Festival
09:28 train from Stowmarket; bring a tankard.

If you ride to the Middy, both the Norfolk and Suffolk Sections of the VMCC will be there.
This is one of our ‘turn up if you feel like it’ Steam Sundays where you take a chance on how many of us (if any) will be there.  Why not come on a BSA, James, Matchless, Royal Enfield, AJS, Coventry Eagle, … bicycle?

Wednesday 26th

A visit to the Bury St Edmunds beer festival
Assuming it’s the same as last year, a CamRA members’ preview session will open at 4pm.

Sunday 30th

Spoke and Steam: the annual event when we all converge on the Middy.
We start from Stowmarket, V-CC Flat Section members start from Walpole or Diss, and the Chickering Cycling Circle starts from Horham (& not the car park at the Middy).  Our ‘spoke’ leaves Unity Road at 10:00, calls at Stowmarket Railway station at 10:10, and Reeds Way in Stowupland a bit later depending on how long it takes to struggle up the hill.  The V-CC contingent from Walpole is planning to get to the Middy at 11:00; we'll probably be a bit later but can't go any earlier if we're going to collect anyone coming by train from Bury.

Monday 31st

V-CC Flat Section monthly meeting—Plan B.
