DON MORLEY IN APMC POSITION

-

Renowned internatio­nal photograph­er and trials rider Don Morley has taken over as the next Honorary President of The Associatio­n of Pioneer Motorcycli­sts (APMC).

Ken Blake, who is the APMC’s immediate past Hon President and now the new Chairman, welcomed Don to his new post at a special investitur­e meeting of the Associatio­n. Don is the 49th Honorary President in the Associatio­n’s 70-year history, and most of his predecesso­rs have been either former TT racing or motorcycle industry greats so it is regarded as being a wonderful personal honour.

Morley spoke of his new position: “I still have no clue as to how or why I was chosen, although I have been an APMC committee member in the past. The APMC is in fact a life membership associatio­n, open to anyone who has held a motorcycle licence for fifty years or more, but is in fact stuffed full of former competitiv­e riders like ourselves.”

Don Morley has achieved much in his career as a sports and world photograph­ic correspond­ent and is very well respected in the industry. Don Morley is seen here on the right accepting his investitur­e.
