meet logoTHE ANNUALBRITISH MOTORCYCLE MEET NEEDS YOU
2003 year nearly spelled the end of the oldest British-only motorcycle Meet in the United States — the Annual British Motorcycle Meet in Auburn, Massachusetts. Torrential rains and winds of near hurricane intensity resulted in a turnout of only a handful of bikes, a couple vendors, and a few spectators. What was to have been our grand 25th anniversary was washed out. The effect on the Meet treasury was devastating.

With ever-rising costs for location, toilet, tent and table rentals, police details, insurance, printing, and more, the Meet is expensive to produce. We debated calling it quits. But, with letters, emails, phone calls and Web postings, the British cycle community has implored us to forge ahead for another year.

We've agreed to keep going. But, we can't do it without financial support from folks like you.

To help you decide how you can contribute, we've devised three suggested levels of sponsorship. To show our gratitude, each level brings with it special benefits and recognition.
