The International Fellowship of Motorcycling Rotarians

Great Britain and Ireland Chapter

An interesting observation from the map (courtesy of O/S) is that you will see 5 great capital cities representing 5 countries that make up the British Isles all of which have their own parliament. Eire (Southern Ireland) being totally independent and the only country of the 5 to adopt the Euro

There is also another parliament on one of our most famous islands (well to us motorcyclists anyway) and that of course is the Isle of Man.

The diversity, the people and the history is what makes these British Isles Great. Famous names of towns and cities shown on this map of the British Isles can be seen across the world in countries like the United States, Canada, Australia, India and many more influenced during the days of Empire

Millions of visitors come to Britain every year for many different reasons, some to trace their ancestry, others to marvel at places like the Giant's Causeway in Ireland, the Western Isles of Scotland, the Valley's of Wales or the beauty of the stone buildings of the Cotswolds but all can be assured of a welcome from one of the friendliest people on earth
