Isle of Wight weekend

Sarah Farbrace and Stuart Faulkner organised a weekend trip to the Isle of Wight over a long weekend of 26-29 September 2025. I wasn’t sure what the Isle had to offer, but it was a great weekend. The route down to Portsmouth mostly ran along the south coast with just a small amount of main roads. The island has a great similarity to the unclassified and B roads around Kent, but with the added bonus of regular sights of the sea.

Apart from Sunday morning we had really good weather. The highlight of the trip was the military road which is 11 miles of heaven. Pot hole free, lovely bends and great to practise overtakes. It is worth going there just for the road, cheaper than a track day

Yet another great addition to the packed club riding programme. Thank you, Sarah and Stuart.
