Hi,

Apart from Box Hill and the one on the A25 whose name I can't remember are there any other biker haunts around here?

I've heard rumours about a pub in Odium and possibly the Tweasledown pub, but have seen no evidence when driving/riding past.

I'm based in Fleet, have only recently started riding and will be looking for a few evening and weekend rides once the evenings are not dark and icy.

Cheers,
Mark

Odium will kick of again in the spring I think. Its normaly the first Wednesday of the month, if the police don't get to heavy on it.
Alton Cafe in the in Alton train station car park is another, its every Wednesday, all year I think.

Odium = Odiham

That's the one. It's far too posh there for the likes of me so I'll probably never have to write it down.

Odiham = Lord Derby Roundabout, just near the M3 (get off the M3 @ A287 Junction, head towards Odiham , and the bikes are at the next roundabout).

Alton Station Cafe. Weds. (I enjoy this one)

I was going to mention Alton as I've been there quite a few times as I live in Farnborough. If anyone goes gimme a shout would be good to meet up.

Odiham used to be the first Wednesday each month during BST hours.

I used to go every month, however the plod started to clamp right down about 4 years ago so I stopped going.

I have heard that Alton is supposed to be pretty good however haven't made it yet.

If you fancy a run down to the coast then come down to Poole Quay on a Tuesday - see here:-

Lord Derby started this week, I didn't make it though.

Looking forward to doing a couple of Poole meets this year!!!

Have you guys done Portsdown Hill before?

I live just down the bottom of Portsdown Hill.

It is a popular meeting point for bikes, and there is usually someone up there. Not a massive meet though. Certainly nothing organised. Just a case of turn up and see who's there.

Lord Derby is at Odiham (just the other side of the M3 from Basingstoke - junction 5 IIRC), first Wednesday of each month. Used to be great for stunt monkeys, however police have had a real crackdown over the past few years.

Portsdown Hill is just north of P*rtsm%$th - great views over looking the smog around Scoobs house and a fantastic burger bar (Mick's Monster Burgers mmm).

Head down the A32 and take a left at Wickham (signposted Southwick/Boarhunt I think) - some cracking roads around there.

No particular day/date for meets at Portsdown Hill - any dry sunny day there are guaranteed to be some bikes up there. Not usually any stunters up there, however loads of posers on some trick machinery 8)
