During the summer months there are twenty midweek rallies to various pubs,
where you will see VMCC eligible motorcycles from the early 1900s to the mid
1980s, all within 25 miles of Cheltenham. The venues are chosen for their
idyllic location and as nearly all serve bar meals, they are the ideal place to
have a pint, something to eat, chat and unwind. The Sunday lunch time Meetings
in the summer take us to meet members from other local Sections, and Winter
Wanderings take place one Sunday lunchtime a month from October to March. There
are also Gatherings on Boxing Day and New Year's Day for those with an iron
constitution. The Cotswold Section has many other events during the year with
something for everyone, with a series of winter sporting trials and road
events. V.M.C.C. Members are also given the opportunity to ride in other
competitive events which include Road Racing, Trials, Grass Track and
Sprinting.
