Club Charter
The Great Escape Motorcycle Club was formed
in 2006 in Arborfield by 2 serving REME officers; Steve Cannon and Kev Howard. The club was designed to promote
advanced road riding skills for young service riders in an attempt to reduce the high number of motorcycle accidents
within the military community. The secondary aim of the club was to introduce recruits to adventure military
motorcycling using MT350cc Harley Davidson motorcycles. Following 2 successful years of competition riding,
enduro training and maintenance tuition, the club has evolved to become the Great Escape Adventure Motorcyling Club and
is now focussed on long distance unsupported expedition riding using road legal trail bikes for military
and civilian riders. The 'Great Escape' was chosen for the club name in memory of the legendary Steve McQueen to engender a spirit of adventure and positive
mental attitude.
