Tuesday 17th @ Riverhead

[sexysi]

Anyone coming down for a wee nip of Gin.
Might actually see some new faces that can't make Wednesdays. And any Wednesdays normals could also pop down, recording Holby to watch later :wink:

Yep, when the lights went on, I so thought you were going to be pulled. lol.

[lynw]

so the weekly alternates is not an option then?

so those who wanted wednesdays are down to once a month meet and the same for the tuesday crowd?

[rictus01]

I had to check, but according to the poll wednesday got more votes, I'll admit my maths isn't to hot these days, but last time I looked 13 was more than 9 :?

Is this a unilateral action on your part Si :?:

If people want to meet on the tuesday evening that's fine, but leave the wednesday meets alone.

I believe the next is Wednesday the 18th :!:

[BillyC]

It seems, that timings have become confused. I can't say I'm surprised! :wink:

[svsk2]

Think I'll go to the Soho meet instead. At least they can agree what day and time they're going to meet. :?

[Sid Squid]

What is this?

The Essex Monkeys?

Those challenged souls couldn't agree over when they were going to meet for ages, then when they finally did they got it wrong anyway.

Let that be a lesson to you.

[Iansv]

:lol: can't really argue with that.... But we did have a 50/50 split decision :P

[Kate]

Lol, well I can make the 17th so I will probably be there. Next Tuesday I can't do as I've got a car meet I'm going to instead.

Bike meets, car meets...most of the the things I like seem to involve wheels!

Youre the one that wanted it on a tuesday... now you cant do it? :?

I still think the weekly alternating is best cos then everyone wouldve been happy. Or so it seemed at the time as you did post that would be equally acceptable to you in that thread.

So the rest of us now only have one meet a month unless we go for a Wed 18th meet as well?

So the rest of us now only have one meet a month unless we go for a Wed 18th meet as well?Why do you only have one meet a month? its not si that says when and where the meet is its the people that want to go. If you want to go to the riverhead on a certain wednesday/thursday/friday/saturday/sunday/monday/tuesday nobody is stopping you, just put up a poll and see who is available and wants to join you.

[helen]

I think the idea of rearranging / alternating the dates of the meet is a bit of a stinker IMHO.

classic case of trying to please and accomodate all, and confusing everything in the process.

[lynw]

It WOULDve worked if we kept it to weekly so the Wednesdays stayed fortnightly and the tuesdays did so too..

but even that wouldnt fit now. Perhaps the minority should post their calendars on here so we all fit round them... :?

or basically do what Im going to do and just not bother any more...Ill stick with the soho meet I think...

I agree it doesnot please the masses nor is it a good idea. The alternating weeks ie wk1 wed, wk2 tue, wk3 wed and so on IS a good idea. why cant that just be put into practice?

[jambo]

I don't recall anything about wednesdays going down to once a month, but tbh I think this whole thing's become increasingly random.

The initial vote was "how about a move to tuesdays" which did not pass he board so alternating weeks was suggested which seemed to gain approval.

I'm happy to turn up as and when I'm not doing something else (like washing my hair) but I think people are making far too big a deal of this. If you want to meet up on a given day put up a poll and see who's coming with! It's not rocket science and it's certainly not the end of the world or worth totally ignoring the SELKENT meet because it's not as predictable as it could be.

This, ladies and gentlemen is the problem with trying out "democracy" sometimes the outcome is less clear than in a dictatorship :roll:

[Kate]

What a lot of fuss!

I queried moving the day as I (and a few others) can't make it on a Wednesday on a regular basis, then it became apparent that there are some people who have never been able to make Wednesdays.

The majority wanted to keep it on a Wednesday so a compromise was suggested where we have the meets on a weekly basis alternating between Tuesdays and Wednesdays which gives everyone the chance to appear if they so wish. Joe has put up a poll on this which should close the whole issue.

I don't see why people are causing such a fuss about all this? So you don't want to change so don't, no one is forcing you to. Just because there are a few people who are willing to change doesn't mean everyone has to.

Lynw, yes I do have a life outside bikes and I don't tend to set stuff in stone and always do the same thing. The car meets happen every month or so and I haven't been to one in about 3 months so I've decided to go to that next week. I made the meet last Wednesday instead of going skating. Big deal. If there is a meet on whatever day I will try to appear.

I honestly don't see the big deal here. Whats wrong with putting up a poll for a date and seeing who's interested? Its not hard. Not turning up because its not preditable enough or because its on a different day (shock, horror) seems daft to me. If you don't fancy going along then fair enough.

Fingers crossed that Joe's poll closes this whole issue.

[helen]

cool, see everyone a week on wednesday :P

[Itching 2 go]

cool, see everyone a week on wednesday :POI STOP STIRING YOU! :P

[lynw]

Fingers crossed that Joe's poll closes this whole issue.

Amen to that!!! Seems to be so far... :D

How rude!

[Viney]

To be honest, i am so confused.

Its not difficult. is it really

Someone makes the decision. We have the standard normal wednesday meet at the Harvester as the case has been since last year, then we have alternate meets at another venuse on the Tuesdays. Cast it in stone and thats the end of that.

That means there is a meet every week.

Now, the venue. Could have it a little further round surrey way, bearsted/edenbridge, or further round, redhill way? Plenty of pubs.

Somewhere along the A25. i believe that theres a pub in Godstone, just off the one way system thats quite nice, and has a good menu.

I think if there was a change in venue then the grasshopper on the A25 would be god or perhaps further towards eastbourne maybe?

[coombest]

Towards Eastbourne would be good!! :D:D:D

Or Edenbridge... That way, I could take the (slightly) longer way and enjoy the a267 and the glorious A272... I'm sure Mr. Chutz would make more appearances then, too!! :lol: :roll:
