Editor’s Edict

THE EDITOR’S EDICT...

There’s been a few changes in the background within the NABD universe.

First of all, welcome onboard to Tracey Tynan who has taken over the membership role from Mark Mayo. Mark has moved on to take over the Club Liaison position from me.

Tracey and Simon (Freedman, our techy guru) have also been working on a new style membership card to replace the old laminated ones. Members should start receiving them as they are rolled out this year. This is alongside working out the bugs within the new membership system and a plethora of other things which I don’t completely understand.

We have also had a few new Reps join us. Michelle Straughan from Durham has come back into the fold, Duncan Maceira from the Isle of Arran, Rosie Brown from Liverpool and Tomo Thomson from Cowdonbeath. So welcome onboard and I hope you enjoy representing this worthwhile charity.

As I sit here, in the middle of a field full of bikers and the sun shining down. I am reminded of why I fell in love with the biker scene so many years ago (too many years to admit to). The comradery, laughter and general ambience of a rally field is like no other. Our own You’ve been NABBED 29 event, earlier in the year, was the same. Everyone was there to just enjoy life and revel in each others company. The past three years have been a drain on us all, and if that event was anything to go by, we are determined to live life to the fullest whilst we still can. As I now have the van to sleep in at events, I shall also be reanimating my NABD information stand. So, if you see me at an event, feel free to stop by and say hello.

Speaking of events, plans are also forming for our 30th You’ve been NABBED event coming in 2023. It should be epic!

Have a fabulous summer, and try to keep cool!

Cheers
