Bike Meets.

[Bravo]

Not really a fan as I'd rather be riding bikes than standing about looking at them but as I'm currently taking a sabbatical from work(work is very overrated) I thought I'd do a few and see what all the fuss is all about.
If I can I get to Whitwell Station on a Friday evening taking the back roads, meet some mates,have a burger and talk bollocks then a couple of us ride home together.

Went to Wicked Wheelie Wednesday would you believe last Wednesday and wasn't really impressed.

Off to Old Buckenham later today, well you gotta try these things.

Me too, I tend to avoid places like Matlock Bath as I don’t get excited standing around talking about oil viscosity with a bunch of Hi Viz blokes.

I stay to quieter bits of the Peak District, although I did go to Monyash last week on a weekday because it will be quieter…..only about 100 bikes there.

Nice folk though.

Each to their own….

Much the same. I would rather visit a quieter seaside town like Aberdyfi or Aberaeron than go onto the prom at Aberystwyth. Since dropping social from my occupational description I have become quite averse to anything involving social and occupation unless with a few select friends or if I have to, family.

Bike meets

Fuck that

Wankers standing around for 2hours discussing Knee sliders and talking bollocks having ridden 20 miles to get there and 20 miles home.

Bike meets attract the Rozzers and other undesirables

Ride your bike for 2 hours is my view

I do like a good hang-out, but try to avoid oil viscosity discussions!! Being occasionally grumpy means I don't have to talk with many folk.
Old Buckenham is good because of the huge variety of bikes and owners there, from hairy greebos to power-rangers and everything in between.
I like to look at the various interpretations people have of making their bikes individual, without throwing the after market catalogue at it. After refreshment its always good to get away from the mass hordes, like going out for a blat when major live sport is on tv.

Keen to try Whitwell, one week @Bravo

that's a very shiny kettle....................very nice

 

[L2RKE]

Whitwell is OK, but doesn't have the same atmosphere as Old Buckenham
Nice ride there though.. Which is what it's about really.

I've wasted more hours than I care to remember at bike meets and looked at more bikes than you can shake a stick at, so tend not to involve myself with them, what I would say though is that when I attend the annual NW Triples rally I am able to meet up with old friends who are still part of the fraternity, thankfully there aren't really any wankers amongst them

Places like Devils Bridge no longer have any attraction to me

A story to tell is that whilst visiting Devils Bridge back in the 90s a passer by said "look at that twat strutting around with Alan Carter leathers on"................it was Alan who had arrived with me as my pillion, when he turned round and the bloke saw his face he was absolutely gobsmacked...Alan is a an old friend of mine and still rides these days he has a Suzuki 650 thingy

I agree with all the comments above but I might not get the opportunity again for a while so why the hell not,I can plot a nice twisty route there so I can get the old girls petticoat lifted.... purely to stop it choking up you understand.

I really only go for the ride.

I was out on the RS sunday, starting out without a destination really. I happened on a car show with a strong showing of Harleys, completely by chance. At a place called burnouts in Milliken colorado. Some really nice machinery there. typical american hot rods, vettes, mid fifties chevies, older fords that looked like willis cars, the usual dodges, one tee bucket and a whole passel of very nice HD's. It was certainly worth stopping and stretching the legs, although staying there all day would be akin to pulling teeth likely.

Just back from a solo 120 mile ride on Rocket.

No knee sliding bell ends

No gangs of Hi Viz Nazis blathering on about vanishing points

No hordes of fully loaded GSAs headed to Starbucks

No circles of Klim clad riders, group whacking off over the latest edition of ‘ABR’

Just bends, me , rocket, and some English Breakfast Tea

Just to make it a bit sweeter, got home, gave her a quick wipe down, and 10 mins later it’s started to rain.

If I go to the likes of Matlock or Squires it's because my mate wants to go. Luckily nobody wants to talk to us anyway.

 

[Guru Gora]

Me too.

Best way
