Cornwall Section

Founded in 1965, the Cornwall Section has a long tradition as a very friendly group where you will be instantly made welcome. The Section always seeks to live up to the county moto of; "One And All"

Among English counties, Cornwall is unique. It is surrounded by sea in 3 directions, with the longest coastline, roughly 400 miles, of any English county. Compared to the rest of Britain, Cornwall’s weather is warmer and sunnier due to the subtropical microclimate, although this can change in an instant giving the well known "four seasons in a day".

If you look at a map of Cornwall you will see it is long, about 80 miles, and relatively thin, 6 miles at it's narrowest. A meeting point in the geographical centre of the county will leave some members with a round trip appproaching 100miles, so to prevent such long trips the Section meets monthly at various locations all over the county. Runs, ride-ins, and social events, in and around the Cornwall area are organised monthly.
