Who are we?

The club is run by our esteemed chairman, Barry Foster. Barry has been a member for quite a few years now and has taken over the stewardship. He is ably assisted (or to put it another way, heckled from the back) by Phil Kennedy.

Our excellent secretary, Malcolm Lunn has just taken over (if you are reading this in 2022) from Stephen Davenport who has stepped down after 20 years in the job (you get less than that for murder).

The webmaster is Alan Sharkey - so, blame all issues with this site on him.

We have a new Press Secretary - Sue Robertson. She will be sending off reports to HOC and bossing the web master around to add new things.

Stephen Davenport hasn't got completely away - he's still our man responsible for social media - that means Facebook (see top right for a link).

Gary Fisher is our rides co-ordinator and ride leader. Occasionally he WILL lead you up the garden path, but we still follow him as he is our HOC Shepherd.

Finally, we have a social secretary, Juels, who, when she’s not zapping around on her bikes (on both sides of the road), organises things like the Christmas dinner and other social evenings out.

If you wish to contact any of the above, we have a nice form you can fill out. Please don't abuse this, or we may get a tad irritated (and you wouldn't want that).

Of course, we would be no-one without all our regular members. Far too many to name them all and you will get to know them as you become friends.
Chairman
Barry Foster
Barry was co-opted as chairman (although he will say he was coerced) but he's done a fine job so far. As you can see, he does like his food.

Barry doing what Barry does best.
Secretary
Malcolm Lunn
Malc is a long time ManHOC (and HOC) member who has been through a number of bikes but has settled gracefully on a Gold Wing and a VFR (for now. He can be found nestling in the sands near Southport when he's not on a ride with us.
