2013 bike meet!

dsb · 13 Jan 2013 at 13:55

How about another bike meet this year in the first weekend of May?

I propose we start at H cafe in Oxford, www.h-cafe.co.uk/ then to Loomies Cafe Alton, www.loomies.co.uk/about.htm, then to Rykas cafe, www.boxhill.co.uk/information/where.htm

Some good roads to be had with plenty of brew stops.

What you guys think?

how does this look for a route?

shall we set a date and time?

How about Sunday 5 May 13 at 1100 hrs?

Going:

DSB, BMW GSA

edd1e. Daytona 675R
metbandit1. Street Triple R

YES! sounds good, H cafe is just down the road from me and the run to Loomies is fantastic.

Count me in for sure.

Aye, it's about two hours from me too.

Think I'd be willing to make that journey though weather permitting.

edd1e · 13 Jan 2013 at 15:53

The last meet, (Hinckley) was 2hrs from a fair few of us too, but we still came

metbandit1 · 13 Jan 2013 at 16:30

Id be up for it! Never been riding round there before so it'll be cool.
And would be nice to catch up with everyone as well.

So do what the southerners did last year set a meet point and all ride together. I think there was 5 of us on the ride to Hinckley last year before we met all the others.

It was a great day last year.

21 bikes in all showed that day. :cool:

I'm in & I have a proper bike this time.

ElliorR · 13 Jan 2013 at 17:13

I'm up for this. I'd be happy to head anywhere to meet up but the H Cafe is only 22 miles from me

Also that twistly, slopey, road down to Rykas was great when I did it last summer.

Dogbreath · 13 Jan 2013 at 17:36

Tempting, haven't been to an OcUK meet for years but would be at least 3 1/2 hours from me.

Fireskull · 13 Jan 2013 at 20:16

Definitely up for this, I would be going up from Southampton so happy to ride up or meet anyone en route.

Hector · 13 Jan 2013 at 20:40

I'd be game for meeting at H-cafe but on an SM my backside will have had enough by the time I get there. So I might pop along to say Hi before you all head off for your ride out.

MADMAN69UK · 13 Jan 2013 at 23:31

Anyone from the Derby/Notts/Leics area considering it?

Edit: Oxford is about 110 miles/2hrs from me.

That's us three sorted then. :cool:

PU7E · 14 Jan 2013 at 12:22

I'm up for trying to go again this year, I just need to avoid the side of lorries for the next few weeks

I'll be heading from the Cambs area if anyone else wants to meet up on the way?

Brackish · 14 Jan 2013 at 13:25

I will go. I am in Milton Keynes so H cafe is not too far.

Wont be there until about midday due to working nights and if anyone is passing by MK I can meet up on the way.

Are you planning to do it on Saturday or Sunday or both days?
