Here is another bumper edition of your SAM newsletter and there is a lot that you won’t want to miss! The FREE SAM Members Autumn Breakfast is waiting for you to book your place. Remember, that to take part in SAM events, you must have a current, paid up, IAM RoadSmart membership (This is checked against IAM RoadSmart online and our Membership Secretary’s records). The SAM Club membership fee (£12 still!!!) can be paid at the FREE Autumn Breakfast. The really good news is that your Club membership will last until March 31st 2023. The SAM Club has a new LinkedIn account, so if you are in business why not link up and share the SAM Club news. There are lots of good bike shows coming up so read the newsletter to see what’s on. It seems that young people don’t like gears, expressing a preference for automatic drive vehicles. In gaming, Playstation 5’s Northwest 200 game is now based on real life motorcycle racing footage. That should make for some exciting contests at home this Winter. Biker Down Courses are up and running and there are places available for you to bring your skills up to date. There’s an interesting article about motorcycle courses going online that is worth a read. Finally, SYRP have made one of our members famous, but can you guess who is behind the mask? There are a lot more articles to keep you interested so read on and look forward to next week’s issue.  

To ensure that anyone interested in SAM activities, the SAM and Survival Skills newsletters are also on the SAM website; so, everyone can read, enjoy and share. Until next week…

Stay healthy and ride safe, Ed.
