The only problem is most people on here are down south. It was looking at around 10 hours of straight riding when I looked at coming to the last meet.

I love riding but it's flipping knackering pulling those sort of hours.

Me, you, wazza, misterjingo are all West Midlands area so a few numbers

 

[Snaggle]

Northants here

Me and Rossi are Herts, quite a few are from London e.g. gcaster.

For me its roughly 200 miles to get there and back...

 

[TallPaul_S]

And I'm down here in the corner, everywhere is far away down here!

 

[The_Abyss]

You do have the benefit of being closer to Europe though

 

[MowyTone]

I'd be up for this, provided it falls into the part of the pattern where the bike is working fine

 

[IC3]

Let's pick a location that suits most and a date.

That's always a pain, it's normally better to just choose a date and place, and then see who can make it.

Yep, I'm pretty much central Birmingham. Never done a group ride tbh, would be willing to give it a go.

Hey, I went to the OCUK bike meet a few months ago, shame it was just me there

That is why, I woke up, posted here on the forums before leaving and only you replied, so I knew it was going to be a fail

This kind of meet needs to be planed with 1 or 2 weeks advance tops, otherwise people will forget or change plans.

Usually I'm up for a not so early Sunday meeting, as I work weekends and I get home Sundays around 5am from work, also I'm available Mondays to Wednesdays

 

[gcaster]

The ride out last year was really good and well organised (by DSB I believe) but as above, it's almost impossible to get everyone involved. I'd be up for something so long as the boss hasn't booked us up.
I will probably be the slow one with my 59bhp though.

 

[Fireskull]

All this talk of going oop north, Loomies meet anyone?

 

[IC3]

I'm fine with Loomies too, 170 miles instead of over 200 sounds better.

 

[Fireskull]

Haha, I'm happy to come up to the midlands for a meet, agreed all of the previous ones have all been down South!
I'm away for most of September though... if we wanted to plan a late on this year.

 

[TallPaul_S]

Loomies is perfect for me, the A272 is an awesome road too.

 

[IC3]

That's 5 people already

 

[Drangueos]

I'm fine with that.. if it is not early morning

 

[IC3]

Are there any good routes around Loomies? I never usually go around those areas...

Edit: That's 6 people

 

[TallPaul_S]

A272. Job done

TBH a lot of the roads there are great as it's the south downs, nice and hilly.
