National Chairman

Steve 'Rocky' Regan BSc (Hons), PGCE, BEM

Rocky was the first charity chairman and the founder of the AFBVC. He first joined the Army Bikers forum in 2009 which became the AFB in 2011, after which he guided and lead the biker group towards becoming a biker veterans’ charity, achieving charity status in 2012. 

He has been the chairman of the AFBVC for 11 of the 14 years of its existence and a trustee from the inception of the charity. 

He is now the National Chairman, responsible for the vision and ethos of the AFBVC, which is to relieve the needs of veterans, former members of the Armed Forces and their immediate dependents who are in charitable need.

Treasurer

Suzy 'Shots' Edwards

Shots is an ex AGC (SPS) – MAS(A), leaving in 2016 after 20 years’ service.  Shots has been with the AFBVC since 2018 and the Treasurer since 2022. 

A message from Shots - I believe in the amazing work everyone in this Charity does to help veterans and their dependants in charitable need.  I ride a Harley Davidson Sportster trike which I love but do not get out to ride as much as I would like.

I continue to find the role of Treasurer for the AFB very rewarding, and I have seen over the last year the fundraising efforts of all our members go from strength to strength.

Charity Chairman

Bill 'Pilgrim' Aiken BSc (Hons)

Pilgrim has been a Member of the AFBVC since October 2014, first joining the newly-formed Wessex Region, and later becoming Regional Representative for that area.

In 2018 he became Vice Chairman of the Charity and joined the Board of Trustees, responsible for liaison with Regional Reps as well as contributing to the running of the Charity and its community.

His military background includes reserve and full-time service in Infantry and Intelligence units. In civilian life he worked for the MOD and then in consultancy including security and counter-terrorism projects.

He was elected to the role of Chairman in January 2025.

Secretary

Ian 'Coric' McCormick

Coric has been with the AFBVC since 2016 and currently is charity Secretary. He recently started his second retirement, his first was in the eighties and nineties when he sold his house, bought a six-berth yacht and sailed to and around the Mediterranean. His current retirement is much less stressful – he watches cricket, rides bikes and a trike and does charity admin. The secretary role includes helping potential members join and existing members to renew their annual subscription.
