It was good to see some of the new faces in Soho last night, thank you all for showing up.

Particular mention must go to Michael, (Carsick), who has now made it into Soho from Lymington in Hampshire for two weeks running, a round trip of a couple of hundred miles.

The numbers for the last couple of weeks have been excellent, a bit different from this time last year, when, I think, the average would have been around three, these last couple of Fridays have been well into the teens and possibly reached the twenties!

Super idea Toad, I'll set up an online booking system immediately and make them £2 each - would that be okay with everyone?

Adding to Mr Squid's point, is why? I can understand growth but this is massive growth (Soho Massive geddit?) and is strange indeed - but welcome. And if this is the size of winter meets, what are the summer meets going to be like?

Oh and would owners of GSXR's and the like please park on the other side of the road as they're starting to interfere with the parking facilities for SV's, thank you.

Thanks to everyone that my lad and I met last night at my local coffee shop

you made a country lad feel right welcome!
Special thanks to Mr Toad for his outrider/escort duties and Carsick for the company.

Really good to see YOU Debs, still smiling as usual.
How you lot cope everyday with that manic (I know, I know, it was a quiet night....yeh RIGHT!) traffic and stupid pedestrians, I'll never know!

As Jonboy says, the atmosphere is something else, you wouldn't have believed it is still January!

Back down for another dose of "city pandemonium" next week, prior to going to Ally Pally on Sat.

Oh, as I now have a Nero discount card with FOUR stamps on it, do I qualify for "associate membership"?

Cheers

It was good to meet you, just wait till you see it in summer when the buzz is at it's best

As I said to Carsick, I'm impressed with the journey you guys made makes my 50 miler seem a bimble

Sorry I didn't get there this week. As Sid Squid has said, the amount of people that have attended since the new year is unbelievable. Personally I would go every week even if there were only one other person there. I think its fantastic. Look forward to next week. I did have the aim to be there every single week possible and already I have missed one

.

Baldyman, if you decided to make another visit let me know, I travel in from Newbury/Reading so we could ride down together. Would make the trip a little less boring than it normally is

.

Toad, sorry that you didn't get to see anymore "bodges" on Bucket. I have however made a few more "alterations". Namely the handlebars. brake levers and a few more scratches to add to the collection

.

See everyone next Friday
