RED PLATE MONDAY 2/03/2026

/ Sporting Motorcycle Club

Red plate Monday on 2/03/2026 being the first Monday of the month we will be catering for anyone with old or small capacity bikes and any Red Plate cars who want to use this opportunity to give them a run. The route will be a bit shorter and probably a bit slower than some other days but all are welcome to come on their Red Plate machines.

The plan is to have a run down the Bellerine Peninsula way and return to The Eastern Hub Cafe for treats and drinks. I will try and reserve the large undercover outdoor table for us to use.

By request we will also be including the opportunity for those who wish to bring along their partners as pillions or in their cars with the chance to meet other involved members and partners.
