June 23rd will see the first official Rickman Enthusiasts’ Day at the legendary Sammy Miller Motorcycle Museum in Hampshire.
Set within line of sight of the old Rickman factory in New Milton, the museum provides the ideal venue for what promises to be a unique and historic event.
Born from an idea forged by a group of Rickman owners in June 2018 when they met at the museum during a Bike Life event, the Rickman Enthusiast’s Day has gathered interest from around the world, and most importantly by the brothers, Don and Derek themselves. The idea is to gather as many Rickman bikes as possible for a rally and invite the family, and local ex-factory workforce to come and oversee the event.
Apart from a huge array of Rickman bikes on show, there will be associated traders and a Rickman ‘bring and buy’ stall.
Needless to say, all other bikes will be welcome and there will of course be plenty of parking for visitors arriving by car.
There will a number of trophies to be awarded for various classes on the day and there will be two charities the event will be fundraising for; The Hampshire Air Ambulance and the local Oakhaven Hospice, both of which were nominated by Don and Derek themselves.
For bikes to be eligible for judging there will be a registration fee (proceeds to the charities) and they will have to be pre-booked via the booking form at the Museum or online via email or the event’s Facebook page.
The event and the amazing museum will be open to the public from 10.00 am to 4.00 pm and there will be food and refreshments available on the day.
To register your Rickman, please contact Russ Gannicott at triaxiom@btconnect.com to get Paypal payment details.
Registration for each Rickman motorcycles will be £6.00.
