mikestrivens Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Interesting place Stoney Cove. Spent many happy days there scuba diving and teaching others to scuba dive. Parking can be a nightmare though. Quote

Snod Blatter Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 Deffo, I work in Hinckley so it's just down the road. Quote
Snod Blatter Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 So this is tomorrow, slated for 7-9PM. Anyone else still planning on going? Quote
Guest Richzx6r Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 I'm off work but in sunderland.....but I'm still thinking about it but it's a 2 odd hour ride each way Quote
Gerontious Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 So this is tomorrow, slated for 7-9PM. Anyone else still planning on going? Very likely as Ive not had a phone call "can you do a shift today?" Quote
Snod Blatter Posted April 10, 2019 Posted April 10, 2019 Did indeed, and managed to meet Gerontious so all went to plan. It was much busier than I was expecting!Can't imagine how packed it'll be on warmer, longer nights - I'll have to take a smaller bike Quote
Gerontious Posted April 10, 2019 Posted April 10, 2019 Nice way to spend a Wednesday evening. A decent turnout for a 'first' and a nice cross section of bikes. Mine was the only Africa Twin. *smug look alert.Next time with a later sunset and likely to be warmer... it'll be rammed. Quote
brad93 Posted April 11, 2019 Author Posted April 11, 2019 Looks like a good turnout considering there wasn’t much chatter on the Facebook event page for it. I completely forgot about it until I got a notification saying starting in 1 hour. I’m on holiday for next months but hoping to be at the June one, might even have a bike then if I pass my tests this month Quote
Gerontious Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 I would guess there were over 100 bikes there, maybe an underestimate. Which wasn't bad at all for a first meeting. Cafe doing hot food and drinks. A few stalls, shark Helmets, Tranam. Plus J&S. Quote
Leic STRS Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 It was good to see all of the bikes in the flesh; you can only get so much detail online. The ride there was good too.Hoping to come to the rest of them! Quote
Gerontious Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 Just got my May rota and free on wednesday the 8th.. so unless there is some last minute change. and its not pouring, I'll be there again. Quote
Snod Blatter Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 Yeah I'd do it again too, maybe get there slightly earlier though so there's not such a queue for the chips.. Quote
brad93 Posted April 29, 2019 Author Posted April 29, 2019 I’m on holiday for next weeks meet I have just bought a bike though which gets delivered when I am back so will be at the June one if it’s dry Quote

Bungleaio Posted May 3, 2019 Posted May 3, 2019 I'll come along too, I might be on the car though depending if I have to come straight from work. I'll keep my eye out for you [mention]Snod Blatter[/mention] and [mention]Gerontious[/mention] Quote
Snod Blatter Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 The weather isn't looking the best for tonight Heh.. Maybe try again on July 10th eh? Quote
