Unhappy Where was everyone?!?

Hey guys, where was everyone at the Tap tonight?

I'm new to this site and was really looking forward to meeting you guys and to show my face.

Got my insurance renewed especially for the meet.

I didn't arrive until 8pm-ish as my insurance didn't kick in until 7pm.
Like I said didn't get there till around 8pm and I was the only SV there, there were only two other bikes and that's all.
Sat on the wall waiting for an hour or so but to no avail, so went home at 9pm.
I'm sure if you guys would of been there someone would of said hi etc upon seeing an SV, but no.

Did you guys meet up and go for a blast..or..?

I did pass a curvy SV in Seaforth (in Liverpool) anyone form here?

Nobody loves me

Brian, I left after 8:00, having got there at 7:30, obviusly we missed one one another.
The Yam XT and Trump Sprint were there when I got to the Tap.

Pair of us billy no mates, heh?

Rather than use the M56 I decided to get home across country, I had forgotten how awful the lights are on the SV for night riding.

I don't tend to go to the Tap very often, if I'm on that side of the Mersey, I seem to end up at New Brighton for a brew. May see you there sometime?

Hi Sorry guys

I had to work late so couldn't make it. I did post on the site. I know Pedro had similar issues. Plowsie decided it was too far (he does live in Northampton!)

Hey guys, no worries about the poor turnout, there's allways next time

To be honest you didn't miss much anyway, the Tap was as dead as a big bag of dead things!

Can perfectly understand why some of you didn't come, what with the weather, being dark not to mention the distance some of you would of had to of come just for a meet lasting a couple of hours.
Like I said, there's allways next time!!

Yeah I saw the Yam XT, the trumpet had obviously gone by the time I got there.
The other bike I saw there was I kinda moto x/motard type thing, not sure what it was though, though I do know he/she was running without baffles lol.
Bit of a shame we missed each other, must of missed each other by only a few mins
Nevermind eh, I'll see you all at the next meet if poss!!
