I heard that Red lion is not BBQing to discourage bikers this year.

George White are advertising a "Club Night" at their store. Burger van and cafe open. No idea what that would be like.

haven't been on the wiltshire bikers forum for a while but they'd know... think i'll have a little browse.

Ah the Red Lion... The last I heard was when the pub changed hands they had to reapply for their license, they got it with the condition not to hold the Wednesday bike meet as the Police were fed up of policing it. Thus there is no BBQ. However you try telling everybody not to go to a pub which is open. I'm told its still on but not officially. This information was given to me by a regular.

As for George Whites "Club Night" I went once a couple of weeks ago, completely on accident as I was picking up parts on the way home. The burger van was burgering but there weren't that many there, could have been because it was only 5:15 and I wasn't hanging around. Might be a replacement for the Red Lion?

Popped by the Red Lion tonight, was pretty empty, no BBQ, but no cops unlike last week when I hear they were pulling every single bike. Went to Mermaid Inn afterwards - that was much better. Got there at gone 8 and it was still pretty busy, can highly reccommend the burgers too!!

The George at Longbridge Deverill (just south of Warminster) seems to have a small but growing group of bikers meeting on a Tuesday evening.

The pubs got a big car park and lost of nice riverside tables.

I live five mins away and see them as I go out Tuesday night.

Just for your info....

Cheers

Hi, I've just joined the site and am a complete novice to the world of bike forums so I hope this gets posted in the right section. I'm interested in the Castle Combe Thursday evening meetings. Do they happen every Thursday and at what time? Should I just turn up one evening and hope for the best?

AFAIK, the Salutation meets are every week, these were originally set up by the wiltshire bikers forum, i don't think it's a massive meet, but might be worth popping along.


PS: Welcome.

I have been going to the meets at the Mermaid on Wednesdays and can definitely recommend them - great food and a friendly crowd

Also went to the bike night at the Moonrakers in Devizes last Sunday (following a WiltshireRiders rideout) and will certainly return there again.
