In 2005 several of us regularly travelled to other local scooter club events run by Luton
Lambretta SC, The Pilgrims SC, Milton Keynes SC and various others.
After a while a few more locals joined us and it was decided that what was needed would be more events in our area and then got together on a regular basis and organised events, and meet up for runs etc. Over time and as the others heard about our group being seen locally the word started to spread and the club was formed.
The Tin Soldiers Scooter club caters for all types of scooterist’s, be they Mod, Skin, Scooterist, SKA or punk. We have a large variety of scooters within the club including TV200’s, SX150’s, SX186’s, LI 150’s, Customs GP’s, Modern Vespa’s, as well as several good examples of vintage Vespa’s, we even have several modern day twist and go’s.
Our regular Saturday meet is held at "The Band Stand" which is situated at the bottom of Queensway shopping centre, Bletchley, Milton Keynes, MK2 2DY. The meet starts at 12 midday ( but a few of us will be there from 11am) and generally we just chat and talk scooters and then we usually set off for a ride out at 1.30 pm.
Our Easter Egg run / ICRO
We have a Free online forum and this is open to anyone who wishes to be a forum member, why not join the club and give us the expertise of your wisdom. Alternatively just log on and have a laugh with like minded individuals.
We are in our 5th year as a club and we have organised several local events to raise the profile of the club both locally as well as within the scene. The local events are Stoke Goldington Steam Rally, Newton Longville Transport Show & MK Museum Transport Shows, Our Main event known locally as The Keltic Weekender II, our Xmas Party and obviously our Easter Egg run to MK General Hospital. See our events page for a full line up of what’s going on within the club this year.
There is only one way for the club now and that is forward, next year the local events will be even more successful & the membership will increase on an ongoing basis.
We have regular monthly meets on the last Friday of the month at 7.30pm, these are held at The Irish Club, Manor Fields, Watling Street,
Bletchley, Milton Keynes, Bucks, MK2 2HX
Opposite Dobbins Garden Centre, see map by clicking link below:
How to Find Our Monthly Meet
The club is as friendly as they get, members are both young and old, all differing types of people and all just into the music and the scene.
We also meet every Saturday in Bletchley at midday (See map link below), so come along and be sure of a proper Scooter club welcome.
