Having failed miserably to make a Poole Quay Bike Night for the past 2 years (except when I was in the car becasue we were on holiday nearby) I am determined to get to one this year !! :cool:
So beware, I may well be asking if anyone has some floor space for a night sometime !! :D
Both myself and Verna will make our annual appearance sometime as we are planning a week away camping in the local area :)
All being well I'll be there. Was looking at the site t'other day - wondering when it was due to start again.

I will be going this year, work permitting! Be good to catch up with everyone!

:lol: I was snowed in in April last year.
I may be up for meeting you scruffy lot on this date. I don't know why but that date seems to ring bells in my head for some reason. I will have to check the diary when I get home.
I will be there for sure, considering i only live 2 mins away it would be rude not to.

Not really no.
Not really no.
Head south. turn right.
Right, enough chat - who is going to the first one on April 7th?
Usual arrangement is that we meet at Rownhams services, aim to leave there at 6pm sharp. Head off for the Quay, arrive at about 6:30 - 6:40, park up, talk bollox, look at the bikes, talk bollox, raid the chippy/chinese, talk bollox, come home.

From Reading to Poole I very much doubt I would get there for the meeting at the services. Anyone want to give me their mobile number? I would call them when I got there and they could tell me where you are all hanging out. :D

Me too. I guess I have MattSV to thank. I'll be rocking up at Rownhams for 5:30ish. Probably have to get myself a coffee to warm myself up having ridden all the way from Portchester. Unfortunately, it is then touch and go as to whether my bladder can make it to Poole Quay.
It's great being me.

BBC.Co.uk/Weather suggests it should be dry most of the afternoon and into the evening, until after about 10pm.
On that basis, I will definitely be going unless it is ****ing down when I leave work

Good to meet some new faces last night - and it was nice for you all to meet me as well :wink: Next time we'll have to have a longer chat. Make sure you bring me hot pasties and coffee - cream, one sugar. You know how cold I get.
Where was everyone hiding?
Were you there???
We got there about 6:20, met Fizz n Fraser at the roundabout by the chippie shacks, went in to tourist office to get armbands, wondered down past the entrance and round the corner to the chippie/chinese, sat on the bench outside the museum and scoffed grub, wondered back and talked sh!te for a bit and then left at about 8:30

08-04-09, 06:44 PM
Yep.
Spotted Fizz' bike but didn't see anyone I recognized. Got down there just after 7 and parked right at the start by the gates as someone left as we arrived. I think we left about 9 ish.
Not to worry I wasn't Billy no mates as I was with couple of guys from work. Try and catch you lot next time I'm down...

Nope, no its not really. I spoke to the owner, its a R1 with a R7 body kit and endurance fuel tank. But it got me. However due to the modifications the steering lock was somewhat reduced and it turned into a scene from Austin Powers as he maneuvered out.
