Hello all,

My wife (Vix) and I (Alex) are Bristol MoFo's, from over Arnos Vale way. We got our full licenses earlier this summer and now have an SK6 each - yes, I know, matching bikes, uncool, but at least not in the same colours (one red one blue).

A few years back we got involved with a similar forum, but car related, we went to a few meets etc and basically met a load of clipboard Nazis who wanted to talk car tech all day. So, having now seen this forum, can you all please promise you're not a bunch of social misfits. If you can, and really mean it, we'll try and pop down the Roo sometime :) We're probably not up to standard for a ride out just yet.

See you out on the road.

p.s. Anyone who is heading out Chepstow way tonight, please report if the M4/M5 junction still smells of beef and onion pies.

:lol: I'm afraid that's not really possible. But were social misfits in a good way :lol:

You know we are very happy to be accommodating. I'm more than happy to go for a trip around some of the great roads we have here at whatever pace you choose, as will be the others too. Most of our rides are very informal and just a few, thats the way we like them, with a few 'proper' rideouts scattered in.

We're definitely social misfits, but we talk about lots of other stuff than bikes and even when we do talk about bikes it's generally not ultra geeky stuff.

Oi! who you lot calling a social misfit ?!?
Just because we all have leather fettishs.. ride around on bikes trying to be as loud as possible... and go round corners like bats out of hell... :roll:


OK.. point taken! :lol:

Thanks to all that said "Hi"

Do you tend to stay at the Roo for a while? Vix and I tend not to get home much before six thirty most nights.

We drift in from 6 and often stay till 8.30 or 9 or later. We sometimes go for a short ride (well the others do :lol: ) from say 7.30 or 8ish and then home.

ALTHOUGH this thursday is completely unclear due to circumstances so maybe we might not be there this week.

Erm, I beg to differ - matching bikes are Cool 8) Mr Lou and I have matching black pointy SV's, with only one letter different in the number plate! :lol: :lol:
We love them and they look ace together!

Us too, identical apart from one letter. I wanted black, but no black in this years range :(

No probs, not like it's a long way for us and I've not even checked with the wife yet to see if she's already got plans.

Hello, welcome, bienvenue(?) and hi..

See you soon at the Roo. WHy don't you just head straight for the Roo most of us do anyway normally arriving anywhere between 18:00 - 19:00.

I wouldn't worry about the techy geek part. I don't think any of us have memorised how much foot pound torque they have to tighten the warble polly forks nut up to. Mainly stuff about:

'hey Anna, that bikes louder than yours!'
'Valley boy did you just clean your bike when you said you'd gone to the loo'

and the old favorite...

"Stretchie SHUT UP!!!!!!!"

You'll be fine :wink:

Hi, and welcome :D

You need to be sure that the MoFo gang will be there this week.

Yes it does :lol: :lol:

Sometimes it smells sort of yummy, more often than not, it smells like dog meat :smt078
But I know exactly where you're talking about though , if you're going towards Wales you'll smell it just before the M5 turn off. :lol: :lol: Class!

Oh by the way - Welcome :thumbsup:

I've not been biking for long, but the worst smell so far has to be a dead badger at the side of the road near the Airport. Reckon it had been dead for couple of days and in the hot sun we've had it reeked!

Give me the smell of bounce meaty chunks in jelly over that any day!
