Meet up with possible rideout.

[BigBaddad]

Right guys, there's a decent little pub near to me, just outside Downham Market called The Checkers in a village called Wimbotsham. Every year they have a biker gathering, bikes, food, music n' stuff (Aprilia dealers nearby too), I think in August pos bank holiday weekend.

Anyone fancy going or perhaps I'll stick together a ride that would end there?
I'll find out more.

[Lissa]

If we're not off white water rafting, count us in:D

[Sean_C]

Count me in :)

[SVrach]

oooh i only live just the other side of Downham,would that be the 'fenman show'? me and hubby might be up for this :smt023

[BigBaddad]

I live in Lynn.....soon to be St. Germans....supprised I've not seen you about Rach!......you not going on this rideout today?

[SVrach]

As we have a 3yr old it's a bit awkward,we either get on our own or we try and get out together after 6.30ish when our sons in bed and our 14yr old can babysit.
We won't be able to get out on the bikes until tonight,so no rideout for me. St Germans is nice,my hubby has delivered the post there a few times:)

Count me in :)

What with? .....And only if you....sorry we...learn to go around corners ;)

[Sean_C]

If i'm not on the road by august I'll go flipping mental!

[Mike2165]

Well if you need a hand Sean, just shout, I've had the SV apart so many times....oh and managed to get it back together again, liked Keiths idea of the biker build off BBQ. BMF is on this weekend, might be some parts knocking about somewhere

[Sean_C]

Yeah I'm going to head up to the BMF with dad probably. I'll spend this week trying to find out what exactly i need.

Don't think I've heard of this yearly bikers meet Keith, strange how many things are going on around me that I've never heard of :o

If you or your old man fancy a rideout sometime, drop me a line. What bikes do you have?:confused:

Hubby is a postie huh...in St Germans...is he the really old bloke with a comb over and a gammy leg???:rolleyes:....I used to be a postie in Peterborough, lived next to a couple of posties in Watlington for a while too.

So would that be Thomas Close hubby says, He used to work with someone called Dawn is this who you mean, hubby has also delivered Watlington on a few occasions (he gets about abit) he usually covers the sokeferry/wereham area.
I have an SV650n K4 and hubby has just got a new Z1000. My son goes to Downham High too,they may know each other, lol!

Right then done some research......

The Fenman Classic bike show is held on August bank holiday weekend, small cost of about £3 which goes to charity.....by all accounts it's attended by lots of bikers with food, music etc.

I was thinking of popping down to have a look (need to check with my wife 1st)......

If anyone wants to join me for a rideout before, that would be great.....if not I'll arrange a rideout some other time in August, must me my turn soon. I was thinking of meeting up at Maccy D's on the A47 near Peterborough in the morning, find a nice 70 mile route over to the show, then either stay as long as you want, have lunch, go home or have a bit more of ride (the 50mile scenic route to Hunny, perhaps?)

Let me know.

[Skip]

Sounds good BBD - I am thinking of arranging a ride for mid-late July time around the rideout route from last August (http://tinyurl.com/6b5a35)...

[petevtwin650]

Sounds good from both of you. :D:D:D
