Spring meet 5th April 2014

It's looking 50/50 for me - a coil is dying on the Capo and the Guzzi only starts by applying copper wire between battery and starter motor. Will have to see how things go next week, right now I wouldn't count on either of them surviving a 9-hour run :( Italian electrics :mad:
 
If the weather looks bleak i wont be attending (old forum name Persil ) Its nearly 400 miles for full journey and thats £100 in fuel plus lunch/dinner etc which in poor weather its a hell of a day ..
 
Just so everyone knows, I will be going 100% regardless of weather. If only a few come or the weather is bad and we still fancy a ride, we will do a Henley run. Tiny in comparison but at least it's something.

Weather forecast is back to sunny again... So still unpredictable.
 
Google's saying cloudy with small chance of rain. Looks like it might just be an overcast day with a bit of drizzle here and there. As long as the roads are reasonably dry and it's not freezing, should be ok.
 
Are you guys still heading to Loomies?
If so I might try and head down in the car to at least say hello and meet some of those who I haven't already, Agnes ;)

As I said mate, sunshine, rain, hail or snow. I will be there at 0930. You can jump on the Multi if you want whilst others arrive :P
 
Loomies at 9:30 thought it was 9:30 at H cafe?

Dad's beemer is not taxed or MOT'd and I don't have the time to sort it this week, plus I am also no longer insured on anything haha forgot about that bit :D

*Good news though I might get my bike back within the next few weeks, then its all go to get it safety checked and track ready for May.

Sorry yea, H cafe, I will be there from half 9, hopefully there will be some, if the weather is crap, it might just be a ride to Henley or something like that. But if the roads are dry, a ride to Brighton will be had :D Even if I go alone lol.
 
i'm having bike issues at the moment, but i am on holiday so I'm looking at getting it sorted. depending on how things go i will *TRY* to be there.

if anybody is any good with cam chains, valves and shims a hand would ensure that i would be able to attend :D
 
Just being polite & letting you all know it's just to far for me, I can't leave Frank for that long & my usual Dog sitter is seriously ill so can't help me out.
Hope you have a long dry day without any incidents. :)


I'll put together a thread for another Midland meet & see if there's any interest.
 
Sad times mate!

Well, I have bad news as well, I tried to ride today, and my hand wasn't too bad but it certainly wasn't great.

Good news is, by Saturday it will be better, but don't expect any of my riding like the last meet lol. I can only grip the handlebar with 3 fingers on my right hand... The index finger just awkwardly points out like ET.

Sending out my number tonight to the list of those going (not updated with cancels so sorry if you get my number and not attending).

I'm desperately hoping the chance of rain shifts to Sunday only. But it's not looking likely.

As I said, if only a few show up, I see no reason we can't do a smaller ride but I will much prefer to do the Brighton run.
 
Aye, my hand was the size of a melon.

If it's pretty bad and it's a 60%+ no show, shall we simply change the date and try again? Those that arrive this Sat will decide what to do I guess. But it seems a few of us are already in 2 mind sets about it.
