SUMMARY:2026 SMC AGM – Thursday 19.03.26
DESCRIPTION:The AGM will be held on Thursday 19th March in The Willow Tree\, 14 West Port\, Linlithgow EH49 7AZ (formerly The Black Bitch). Tea and Coffee will be available from 7:00pm in the upstairs function room\, the AGM meeting will start promptly at 7:30pm. \nBelow is the Notice\, Agenda and a form for motions and nominations. \nAs well as reporting on the years activities\, and going through any motions which may have arisen\, the AGM is the time when your committee are voted in for the following year. \nIn accordance with the club constitution\, the existing committee will formally step down at the AGM and a vote will take place for each position. Members are encouraged to put themselves forward for any position they feel they can contribute to regardless of whether an existing committee member is standing for re-election. \nSome of our current committee members are happy to stand again for re-election. However\, there are 4 vacancies which we require to be filled by members this year\, as the committee will be down to critical numbers. Our current Treasurer and our Merchandising Officer will be standing down\, although\, the current Merchandising Officer intends to stand for election to the Treasurer role. The roles of Web Administrator and Runs Coordinator are still vacant. \nIn addition to these named vacancies\, we created at the last AGM General Committee Member position(s)\, allowing members to volunteer for a non-specific role in the hope this will be less daunting and encourage members to step forward and contribute to the committee’s work.\nMore information on all these roles are below and we encourage members to seek nomination for the upcoming committee elections. \nAre you wishing to become more involved in the direction the club is going?…. can bring new ideas?…… one of these roles could be for you. Even if you haven’t been a member of the club for long\, we need you. \nRuns and Events Co-Ordinator\, comprises of adding runs and events to the website\, either created by yourself\, or another club member\, or from our back catalogue. Keeping a record of run attendees\, leaders and TEC’s. Keeping members updated via a memory jogger email weekly during the busy months. It is NOT the responsibility of the Runs Coordinator to lead any of the the runs\, so don’t let that put you off. \nWeb Administrator\, this role will require someone with a bit of computer / web development knowledge as you will be involved in maintaining and developing our website. Our website was migrated over to Word Press in the last couple of years\, and has proved to be an easier platform to use and maintain. This may sound a daunting task if you are not experienced in this area\, but we know we have members with these skills and are directly asking for your help. And it’s not too difficult to learn\, with assistance from the current caretaker Web Administrator. \nThe Merchandise Officer is responsible for the sourcing and making available for sale\, suitable motorcycling related items to the Members\, through the existing portal on the website\, and monitoring the sales volumes. \nGeneral Committee Member this recently created role does not have any specific tasks assigned to it and is there to allow members to volunteer\, help out as and when required while seeing how the Committee works in the hope that as you would then feel comfortable taking on a “named position” in subsequent years. Member input is vital to the continuation of the Club and we hope to encourage newer members to join the Committee to ensure a smooth transition from one Committee to another as we move forward. Up to three positions are available. \nIf you are interested in volunteering or would like further information on any of the committee posts\, please contact me by replying to this email. \nAs always\, your voice is important to the future of the club and we want to ensure we represent ALL our members and take the club forward for our mutual benefit so please try to attend the AGM if you are able to and make your opinions known \nThe meeting will receive reports from the current office bearers\, consider any competent motions\, elect office bearers and set the membership fee for the forthcoming year as laid out in the enclosed agenda. \nAny member wishing to propose a motion should submit the motion by email to the secretary. This must be received no later than Thursday 19th February. The motion must be supported by a proposer and a seconder who are current members. \nAny member wishing to nominate either themselves or another member for an elected (committee) post should submit an application to the secretary. This must be received no later Thursday 19th February. The application must be supported by a proposer\, a seconder and the agreement of the nominee (if applicable)\, all of whom should be current members. \nAny motions and all elections shall be decided by a vote of those present at the meeting (and all valid proxy votes).\nAny member wishing to vote by proxy should notify the secretary by email specifying their name\, and their proxy nominee.

SUMMARY:Eastern Challenge Run - Tuesday 31.03.26
DESCRIPTION:Start Crieff Visitor Centre 09.30 for 09.45 start\nFinish Crieff Visitor Centre approx 16.45 \nHi all\, with forecast appearing to warm up next week\, I thought I’d take the opportunity next Tuesday to take in four of the easterly challenge sites. If you’d like to join me I’ll be leaving Crieff and heading through Aberfeldy and on to first location near Pitlochry. From there it’s over to the A93 and on to Ballater with likely stop for coffee at either Glenshee or Braemar. From the AA Box site it’s onwards toward the coast and down to Montrose for the Air Museum. Leaving Montrose I’ll be heading back to Crieff taking in the Aberlemno Stones on route. I’m sure there will be another stop somewhere for coffee / lunch and fuel stop if required. \nGood opportunity to get the bikes off their winter chargers and put some miles under our wheels. Google says 215 miles\, 5hrs 45 riding time. If you are available and would like to join me\, see you Tuesday. \nRoute here:- https://maps.app.goo.gl/KLGMVdcQwFrs1wfT6
