Hi all just posted the message below in another area of the site and was reommd to talk to you guys!

Just moved back into the leamington spa area of warwickshire and looking to get to some bike meets or good roads if anyone can help??

Hi Silver,

Pete and I are in Rugby, so not far from you.

Try the Diner at Long Itchington on a Sunday morning................usually a few bikers there for breakfast. There is also a meet there on a Thursday night, although that has ended now for the winter.

Fox's Diner at Dorchester is a nice run on nice roads.

There is also the Cafe at Quatford, lots of bikes there on a nice day.

There is also Midlands Superbikes at Market Harborough..........great food van there. Try their breakfast baguette:p

Like us, you are in a bit of a no mans land group-wise. We tend to do things with EAR, The Border Patrol and Thames Valley too.

We like to get out and about most weekends, you're always welcome to give us a shout and see what we're up to. Be warned though..............we are old!:p

I used to live in Funny Compton and found a few decent places to ride, although they have made a pigs ear of the nice flowing Southam to Banbury road with the speed limits. There is the biker cafe at Suzuki Daventry and a bike meet at the Kings Head in Napton on Tuesdays I think.

This way usually

The Fosse is a good road. Not as straight as the map suggests.:D

This way you'll also go past Ma Larkins. Another favourite with bikers at the weekend.
