Historic Registration.  
 

Historic Vehicle Registration is available to FINANCIAL Members of the Club owning a vehicle 30 or more years of age which is "true to type"

- (close to standard) with original engine type.

It entitles the member to make 90 LOGGED trips per financial year.

It is NOT transferable between clubs.

Each Club member who requires Historic Registration must have the suitable vehicle inspected by a Club Registrar and then pay the DoTEI charges.

A LOGBOOK (3 year validity) will be issued by a Club Registrar when the member presents the DoTEI receipt (rego certificate) and a current membership card.

OBLIGATIONS

A member only has valid COMPULSORY THIRD PARTY INSURANCE when using a HISTORIC VEHICLE if :

   (1) currently financial with the Club AND

Ride Etiquette.
 
On rare occassions on recent rides, lead riders have taken off without using their mirrors to ensure that the rest of the riders are still with him/her. In cities or larger towns the group can easily be separated by other traffic or traffic lights, and of course in the country, if the leader cannot see the group, how will they be aware of a breakdown or worse, an accident?.  So please watch out for your following rider, even on dirt, take time to look.
Courtesy can be contageous, try it.
 
 
Please be aware that rides may be cancelled at short notice due to inclement weather or for any other reason deemed neccessary by the Club Captain or the ride Co-ordinator. If you are unsure of an event, contact details can be found in this site under "Contact Us".
