The Sammy Miller Motorcycle Museum

The Sammy Miller Motorcycle Museum houses a huge collection of motorcycles of all descriptions, including some that will be of interest to NACC members. Nick Devonport spent a fascinating day there earlier this year. There’s something for the racing enthusiast and touring people, from the dawn of motorcycling to more modern machines. You might catch a glimpse of the great man himself as he’s still restoring bikes and is often found in the workshop. Show your valid NACC membership card and you’ll get 10% off your entrance fee!

P4P Print Ltd. are moving!

From 1st April 2024 P4P Print Ltd. will change name and move to Keith Avis Printers Ltd. premises, Rear of 68 High Street, Hadleigh IP7 5EF. P4P took over Keith Avis Printers when Keith Avis decided to retire from his business.

The NACC has been re-registered with the DVLA as an authorised club to process dating certificates and V765 forms

The only notable change in the DVLA’s V765/3 guidance notes which dictate how all clubs should operate, is that “authorised clubs should inspect to MUST inspect.” It continues to be acceptable to delegate the inspection to “an appropriately knowledgeable person” Therefore from today’s date Phill will be unable to provide a dating certificate or complete the V765 process without a machine examination report. Obviously members cannot carry out their own examination, but “appropriately knowledgeable” is a very loose term and most people who have an interest in our types of vehicles are thus qualified.
