Established in 2001, the Isle of Wight Section has made big strides since its creation and now caters for some 60 VMCC members on the Isle of Wight. During the riding season, social runs, both on the Island and Mainland take place and there is a Winter programme of indoor activities. In particular the Section stages an annual event for pre 1931 machines in September. The 'September Scurry' has seen support grow from 12 entrants in 2002 to over 40 in 2005 and is an unusual and sociable event. Island members bikes cover the whole spectrum from early pioneers made before 1910, to superbikes of the 1970's. The Section can also provide static displays of our machines to enhance other club and organisations events. Whatever your particular vintage motorcycling interest the Section will cater for it, and you do not have to own a machine to join us.

The Vintage Motorcycle Club was formed in 1946 by a band of 38 enthusiasts and total membership today stands at over 14000, but because it is formed of regional Sections, this has been achieved without loss of camaraderie or helpfulness. The principal function of the VMCC is to provide an organisation that offers a wide range of benefits to anyone having an interest in motorcycles or three wheelers over 25 years old. The Club is organised into 78 autonomous Sections that hold their own events and meetings, with support from a fully staffed Head Office based in the Midlands. Further information on the VMCC and the benefits available can be found at their web site by clicking the logo on this page.

Isle of Wight Section Club nights are held on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of every month (from about 8:0pm) and we would be very pleased to see you even if you are not a VMCC member. Venues for these meetings are The Cricketers Rest (East End of Ventnor Botanical Gardens).
