PhatDad Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 Might be mate... Gonna see what's happening. I am certainly out on the bike tonight, but feel more like riding than standing around!! cool, I would prefer to ride but it's the first time my wife will have pillioned and I think it's only the beer that's attracting her to the back of my bike. Is it just a pub with a big carpark or do you have to pay entrance or parking etc? Quote
Guest Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 Just out of interest how far away is this from me Wondering if Im up to a long run yet Quote
Korben Posted April 29, 2009 Author Posted April 29, 2009 PD.. It's a Pub with 3 big car parks.MLC..It's herehttp://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&sourc ... 17981&z=11Right click on the marker, choose directions to here, then put in your postcode in where indicated on the left (The A slot), then click "Get Directions" Quote
Guest akey Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 Dont think we can get over tonight (no babysitters) but will text willow now to see. Quote
Guest Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 How cool is that thanks Korben 73 miles and 1 hour 25 mins will maybe do this in a couple of weeks once Im used to bike and meet ya for a cuppa Quote
Korben Posted April 29, 2009 Author Posted April 29, 2009 Well if you can get to the pudding run then that will tell you. You will go past MFN (just about) to get to Willow and Akeys....It's the run back from MFN late at night that could catch you out. Especially if you don't have much experience riding in the dark...

Guest akey Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Its that time of the week again!!!!Who will be putting in an appearance this week, willow and I have the sitter arranged (I think) and I will be going direct from work. Weather looks OK too (sunny spells 14 deg C, for the evening)I should have my Legion Riders vest on this week so will be easy to spot. Quote
Korben Posted May 5, 2009 Author Posted May 5, 2009 If the weather does what it says, count me in mate.What time you leaving yours? If it's ok with you would not mind meeting you there and riding down together. Quote
bex Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 I will try and put an appearence in, got a friend stopping over who is biker so will see what he says Quote
Guest akey Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Sounds good Korbs, PM or text willow as she will be leaving from our place - I am coming from work so will meet her there. Quote
Korben Posted May 5, 2009 Author Posted May 5, 2009 No worries Akey, Will do mate!!Any reason to ride the B6013!! Quote
queen bodecia Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Unfortunately not. I'll be on my way back from Leeds. Quote
Jive Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 I'm making the trip up to see what the fuss is about this MFN I'll be on a blue R6 with a To52land fleece on so come say hello to me please Quote
PhatDad Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 I'm making the trip up to see what the fuss is about this MFN I'll be on a blue R6 with a To52land fleece on so come say hello to me please Haha, I think you'll need more than that to meet up with people. Take the phone number of those going and give them a call when you're there. There are several hundred people and several hundred bikes there so picking one person out of that many will be a nightmare. Quote

Jive Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 Haha, I think you'll need more than that to meet up with people. There are several hundred people and several hundred bikes there so picking one person out of that many will be a nightmare. Must have picked the wrong night Not to many there tonight, made a day of it riding round derbyshire before meeting Willow who guided me to MFN (thank you) Think the big black clouds put people off but enjoyed myself. Good to see Akey, Willow and nice to meet Bex and Korben,got lost on the way home, thought A52 A1 would be a change except A52 was shut and I got diverted back to Melton Mowbray So my 2 hour journey took nearly 3hours, ache like feck but 300 miles today make one happy bunny Quote
bex Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 nice meeting you to mate, next time there will be sunshine and lots more bikes lol Quote
Korben Posted May 11, 2009 Author Posted May 11, 2009 It's on tonight and the weather is good. Gonna pop down myself as I am going for a ride out tonight. Anyone up for it?Bear in mind that weather wise, Wednesday is looking like a write off at the moment. Quote
Sheep_onna_Bandit Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 Fingers crossed, next Wednesday might be my first outing on the new bike.Guess where I'll be heading (if it ain't honking it down again GRRRR)????You betcha! MFN! Quote
Korben Posted May 15, 2009 Author Posted May 15, 2009 If the weather is good mate, I will meet ya there. Quote
Sheep_onna_Bandit Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 It won't be good because I won't have the bike yet Friday afternoon though, I will! Quote
Korben Posted May 19, 2009 Author Posted May 19, 2009 I am probably going tomorrow night if anyone's interested... Weather does not look perfect, but...... meh.... Quote
Sheep_onna_Bandit Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 Can't make tonight Stevie, Mrs S is on shift at the hospital until 9 and the kids are home alone otherwise.Definitely next Wednesday though, for sure! Quote
Sheep_onna_Bandit Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Now the pissy weather seems to be clearing I can get to MFN for a wee while tonight (before the Champs League final starts and Mrs S gets tea ready lol)Anyone there? Quote
