Committee Members

Roger Bays founded Oakley Motorcycle Club in 2005, has been its chairman since then.

Derek joined the OMC Committee a few years after it started in 2005, soon after joined the committee. He was shortly appointed Treasurer and later Vice Chair.

Bernice joined the club when it first started up in 2005, joined the Committee in 2006, became the Treasurer in 2009 and became the Secretary in 2014

I joined the Committee this year (2017) in the hope of gaining more knowledge of the ‘motorbike world’ along with bringing vast experience of being a committee member for various organisations over the past 30yrs.

I have been riding for many years, am a DVSA approved instructor and a RoSPA advanced skills instructor. My bike is both my source of income and pleasure. I enjoy helping people to realise their riding dreams, helping on club rides and arranging motorcycle tours.

I became a committee member in 2019 and am looking forward to being involved in arranging future events.

I get involved with the club as much as possible and enjoy planning and leading rides locally, nationally and internationally. Watch the calendar for more details.

I help out on club rides in the summer months, where I Lead and Tec on level 3 rides. With help of another club member, I hope to encourage any member who is on L plates or recently passed their test to join us and gain some group riding experiences.

I was a founder member of OMC when it was formed in 2005 and I have served on the committee since the start.

I am a relatively new member to the club having joined in September 2018. I am a retired Armed Forces and Northamptonshire Police officer of 42 years

Hi, I'm Jemma. My husband, John and I joined OMC Committee in 2020 after being members of the club for 5 years. This year I have started parading and racing with John at the weekends. If John and I are not racing or parading, we are out on ours bikes having a good time with our biking family. Ride Safe.

I am ex RAF, a retired professional photographer and sales manager, and I have traveled the world in my career. I raced for the RAF in the 70’s and 80’s and made a return to racing in 2016 riding a Yamaha TZ250 & TZ350. In 2019 I was runner up in the CRMC over 55 Post Classic 350 GP class, and in 2020 I won the Classic 350 class in the Barry Sheene Classic at Oliver’s Mount.

I’ve been a member of OMC since April 2018 and made some very good friends since joining. I currently ride a BMW S1000XR and a Suzuki Katana and I enjoy touring as much as I do a local ride out with friends. I’m a National Observer with the IAM and mentor riders that wish to improve their road skills. I’m excited to be joining the committee and help with the club’s activities, social events and ride-outs.

I have been a safety professional for 15 years and am currently an HSE & Facilities Director at Cummins, Daventry. I love riding motorcycles and have been riding since Jan 2018. I have a few bikes ranging from a Honda Monkey to a BMW R9T. My husband and I attend Oakley Bike Club as often as possible!
