Welcome to the website of the Le Velo club.

Here you will find a collection of information and history about this club and the Velocette LE motorcycle it's dedicated to.

 

Formed from a spontaneous rally of riders meeting at Newlands Corner, just outside of Guildford in Surrey, in the early summer of 1950, the LE Velo Club has survived the changing values of more than six decades. Now into its 7th decade, it has over 1300 members worldwide and is a limited company committed to promoting the enjoyment, riding and restoration of the post-war lightweight models - the LE, Vogue, Valiant and Viceroy.

We have members around the world, an extensive parts department providing members with new and used parts to keep these wonderful machines alive, a monthly magazine and other benefits.

 

 

We are pleased to announce that with the gradual easing of the Covid-19 restrictions by the UK government, the spares team at Bullers End are preparing to return.
 
Please note the following. These dates are important.
 
• You must not submit any orders until week commencing the Monday 17th of May.

Our volunteers picking, packing, and dispatching spares have been adversely affected by age and health issues during the last twelve months.

The layout of the building necessitates that volunteers are able to negotiate stairs.
