wugzie Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Ah well, I,m off Thursday? No can do - working. Still, didn't need new tyre & got puncture repaired so had a run to Hastings after all. Got there about 1.0pm (can't believe it costs to park the bike - like WTF do you display a ticket without it getting nicked!!!). Nobody around so ran on to Rye harbour to grab some lunch then A's & B's back home. Glorious day, few plod, blue skies, bike didn't miss a beat, great lunch & 150 fun miles. Couple of downers - some roads are in an atrocious condition SO STAY ALERT AT ALL TIMES PEEPS. I was Billy-No-Mates for the day. Still, a much enjoyed blast. Roll on Summer Quote

wugzie Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 im in witham in essex, can do the od weekend every now and then if you post when i will check here when i get a free weekend coming up Would be nice to get a few local(ish) peeps together for the occasional rideout. When the hour changes maybe an evening run. Funny though, it's not just this forum which seems to be lacking interest in the South East. Quote
megawatt Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 I,d be up for that mate. Can,t travel very far though. Romney Marsh, Beachy Head areas best for me. Quote

megawatt Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Will do , but It s a few miles for you, but worth it. Quote
Paul Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 Well there looks like a few of us down here and the weather is getting a bit warmer now too. As many of you know I am in Brighton and I get to ride out at least once a week with some lads from work. We usually do Mondays or Thursdays, depends what shifts we are on really. Next ride out will be next Monday, no idea where though we just turn up at our meeting point and decide where to go from there. Usually head off and have lunch somewhere and maybe visit a bike shop where ever we end up.Regular rides include (from Brighton) over to Rye or on to the Airport over there, up around Box Hill, over towards Portsdown Hill or Bury Hill. Usually do around 120ish miles each time.I will start posting dates for the next few rides if anyone is interested or who wants to meet up along the way. Quote
megawatt Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 I,m near Rye and off Monday. If you head this way gimme a shout.? Quote
Paul Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 Ok mate, we often go over to Hawkhurst fish farm place for some lunch at the cafe there. I will let you know soon if we go over that way, will text the lads now and see what they want to do. Quote
megawatt Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 Hawkhurst is about 5 miles from my house mate. I know some brilliant roads in this area. Can meet part way if ya want. Will PM my number. Quote
Ben Whitcher Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 Paul next time your heading to Ports down Hill let me know and i might take a ride up with a group of friends to see you. Anyone else go up there much? Quote
do1977 Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 went up Ports down Hill today there was no one there on a great sunny day like todaywell if there is anyone up for a ride out give me a shout Quote

Stu Ah cool I go Brunel uni, couldnt find a close enough bike school though so doing in home town instead. There is a popular school in Northolt. There must be some local to Uxbridge as they test there and recently I have seen quite a few folks learnign in and around Uxbridge. I have now passed and am getting my bike this weekend so will keep an eye out on any SE meets :0)Stu Quote
Capitano Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 Me, my lad and some mates do the odd ride around Box Hill, Loomies, Station Cafe at Alton, and Bury Hill (Whiteways). We do the Ace Cafe now and again, too.I'm up for rides with the more, the merrier involved but I ain't a fast rider these days and I'm not riding anything exactly hi-tech either. Quote
bumble Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 im at boxhill every other weekend, riding up from crawleynormally before lunchtime though! Quote
Capitano Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 Would love to but I'm a bit restricted at the moment. New bike and they could only book me the first 600 mile service a month ahead.I'm up to 450 miles so far and have around 250 miles of trips planned before the service date....bugger! Quote
Capitano Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 im at boxhill every other weekend, riding up from crawleynormally before lunchtime though! Presumably that is on Sundays, yeah?If we are going there we tend to be there late morning too or Saturday afternoons on occasion. Quote
bumble Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 i will be at buryhill on sunday around tenish!im on a suzuki with L plates and hubby on multi coloured r1 Quote
Capitano Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 I'd offer to buy you both a cuppa but it will be the first Sunday for a while that it doesn't figure in my ride plans. Quote
