AGM 2023

The company held its Annual General Meeting on Monday 11th December 2023 at Fairways Leisure at 7.30pm.

Compared to previous years, it was a disappointing turnout considering the clubs have a membership of 153 for 2023. Hopefully members will take a more active interest in the club going forward.

The only changes were the resignation of John Garth from the committee, which was unexpected and the committee and directors thank him for his term of office on the committees of the two clubs and for the use of his business premises for our committee meetings.

Committee meetings will now be held courtesy of Mr. Jamie Hogan at Caley Marina in Canal Road, Inverness.

A replacement was sought for the vacancy on the committees, and Richard MacKintosh was elected onto the committees. Later the same evening, John Moffat proposed that ‘Dicky’ be nominated for the accolade of ‘Life Member’ which was unanimously agreed.

The other business included an increase to the adult riding membership subscription to £30 for the year to 14th December 2024. The subscriptions have been static for around 5 years so an increase was expected. The Youth and Social memberships remain at £10 for the season.

John Garth proposed a new trial in memory of Mr. Julian Noble of Cannich. This was agreed and one of the club trials at Cannich would be named accordingly, it would be open to AMCA clubs.

It was noted that founder/member Ray Sangster passed away recently, his funeral was held at Froickheim on Thursday 14th December. A new trophy will be inaugurated for the 2024 Highland Classic Two-Day Trial in his memory. It will be awarded to the winner of the trial, this is new for 2024 and will go to the best rider in the Twinshock A category who will be the overall winner of the trial.

The meeting closed at 9.30pm with a vote of thanks to the Chair, Grant Coward.

2022 Membership and INTRO TO TRIALS

It’s that time of year when the club invites all its members to renew their club membership and this is 14th December annually. We have already had 42 memberships received online for 2022, why not do it now before you start the festive shopping or forget to renew?

At the recent Annual General Meeting, it was agreed to hold the membership fees at 2020 levels, which is £20 Adult; £10 Youth and £5 Social. However, that gives membership for both our clubs, Inverness & District MCC (SACU affiliated) and Inverness Trial Club (AMCA affiliated) which are managed and operated as trading styles of Inverness & District Motor Cycle Club Ltd.You get the best of both worlds, being able to apply for the mandatory SACU Trials Card and also able to ride in AMCA club trials which you don’t have to have a licence as it is taken care of by additional insurance when you pay your entry. We recommend that you take out an SACU licence so that you may ride in other clubs’ events who are SACU affiliated.
Here is your 2022 Membership online application form, we no longer have a paper-based application system, this helps reduce postage, reduces administration and paper storage, thus helping the environment. It’s so easy and quick to do.

INTRO TO TRIALS – our last event of 2021 is being held at Tain and is open to existing and new members of IDMCC/ITC. The practice/sample event is being run by Inverness Trials Club with an AMCA permit, which allows riders to take part without having to buy a licence.
Here is your INTRO TO TRIALS entry form, if you know someone that wants to sample trials on Monday 27th December, then let them know and send them a link to this notice for completion, they have to join the club, but we are doing a special combination deal for this event. It includes 2022 club membership and a day out on the bike.

We are all looking forward to a busy 2022 season of local and national events organised between our two clubs – TEAM INVERNESS, be part of it!

Team Inverness – Join Now

It’s that time of year again when the membership comes to an end and it’s time to renew your membership.

The good news is that the 2022 membership fees are pegged at 2021 prices for all, in fact they have not increased since 2018!

But there is more, your membership fee accesses you two clubs for one fee. Adult Riders: £20; Youth Riders: £10 and Social, non riding members: £5.

Great value, so support Team Inverness and get it over and done with before the festive season rears its head!

By paying the membership fee, you are joining two clubs, Inverness & District and Inverness Trials Club. The Inverness & District is affiliated to the SACU and handles our national events, whereas the Inverness Trials Club is more locally geared to running our club only events under an AMCA permit.

SACU events require that you hold a current SACU Trials Registration Card (currently £12), whereas AMCA permitted events do not require you hold any licence, but must be a paid up member of an AMCA affiliated club.

It’s so easy to join, it takes around 30 seconds to complete and pay online, so why not do it now?

Here is all you need:
