14 FREDERICTON MOTORCYCLE CLUB 2019 ISSUE #1 The Fredericton Motorcycle Club FOR OVER 35 years, members of the Fredericton Motorcycle Club have been dedicated to friendship and the sport of motorcycling. Our members are of all ages and ride motorcycles of all types, sizes, and origin. We are proud of our past and continue to benefit our community through activities such as our annual Toy Ride, which is an important event in support of the D.E.C.R.H. Child Life Unit. It is important to us to put smiles on children’s faces and to provide toys and monetary donations for the Child Life Unit to give to pediatric patients. Many of our male and female riders have a lifetime of riding experience, and some are past or present motorcycle instructors. Our group riding activities are a great place to “learn the ropes” and increase your level of skill and safety. We encourage participation from not only riders but from their co-riders as well. Not all of our members are active riders but all are motorcycle enthusiasts. We meet informally just about every Saturday, Sunday morning, and Wednesday night during the summer months for group rides, promoting our club and enjoying riding with friends. Our monthly club meeting is held the second Sunday morning of the month at Ringo’s Bar and Grill. Membership is inexpensive, and we think that you will find the sport of motorcycling is one that is best when shared with good friends. (www. thefrederictonmotorcycleclub.ca) Club Activities: group rides, Halloween party, Christmas party, summer activities, sleigh ride, and weekend socials. NB FOUR CORNERS TOUR is designed to give NB riders a reason to tour around our province and visit places you may not typically ride to. All the instructions on how to participate can be found on Facebook (NB Four Corners Tour). No associated fees to participate— it’s just for fun! You will even get a digital certificate for “Bragging Rights.” While riding in New Brunswick, you will experience friendly villages, vibrant cities, and beautiful landscapes. Each region has lots to offer. A special Thank You to Marshall Doucette. -Hugs, Jim RIVER VALLEY SCENIC DRIVE… This route has twists and turns that will leave you smiling for days… this is your destination for Lac Baker Church.
