The JZR Pilots Association was formed in 1992 - The objective then, as now, - a no rule, no committee, no fuss organisation, to cater for like-minded individuals. We welcome all threewheeler owners.
Present membership totals almost 200, over 50% of the 320 JZRs produced and includes members in N. Zealand, Australia, U.S.A., Canada, Holland, Sweden, and believe it or not Rwanda.
Members come from many walks of life, including a Bishop. He'll bless your car, but still advises membership of the R.A.C. They tend to be of mature years, albeit young in spirit!
To become a member costs £17.50 per year. See membership form. The link between Members of the Association is provided by our Pilots Notes, issued quarterly and contains reports and advance information on events, technical information and member's grouses and opinions. Trike chassis are manufactured by and spares are available from John Ziemba. John can be contacted at JZR Trikes, Nancy Street Yard, Nancy Street, Darwen, Lancs BB3 3HP. Tel: 01254 760 620. |

He can also be contacted by email at fredmartin311@hotmail.co.uk We have been to two JZR Christmas Dinners. On Saturday 10th December the M25 Squadron met at Watford and the following day the Peak Squadron met at The Rising Sun, near Wirksworth. We enjoyed both events, with good food and good company. It is great to meet likeminded friends, some of whom we have known for years. If you missed them, get the dates in your diary for next year. Brian & I went to the Classic car show at NEC. Click on the Morgan visit link to see detailed pictures. We were very sorry to hear of the death of Helen Martin, wife of our long term member Derek Martin aka Hackett and Weld. Helen was a lovely lady and will be missed by all of us. Our thoughts are with Derek at this difficult time. Brian & EvelynOctober meeting. We went to two JZR meetings this weekend and had a really enjoyable get together with old friends at both locations.
It is a fair way for us to Watford, just over 100 miles, but mostly down the M1 which was luckily quite empty. It was so nice to catch up with all our friends and see their JZRs. We are planning a Christmas Dinner for the December meeting. We took a pile of literature and copies of Pilots Notes from the beginning of the club for Roger England who as our archivist is making a record of the history of the JZR. If you have any information or interesting items please contact Roger England on 01462 812241.
