Bangor U
 

Aight just moved up to Bangor U waiting for everyone to settle in so finding time to do this myself eh? ne bike haunts or riders wanna do a couple of joy rides sumtime? hit me up ! :)

Re: Bangor U
 

Which Bangor be that? North Wales, or Ireland. :)

Re: Bangor U
 

If it`s North Wales then Baph and I are not far from you :D

Re: Bangor U
 

T'is the reason I asked my good man. :) Also, there's NW4 coming up to consider. :D

Re: Bangor U
 

these all sound very interesting, can we all play out together soon? because i dnt have any biker buddies down these ways =D

Re: Bangor U
 

From that, I assume you're in Bangor, North Wales.

What bike do you ride? I'll keep my eye out for you as I'm only over the bridge, and often in town.

As for a ride sometime soon, I'm on nights this week, so I'll be either working or sleeping. However, this weekend (starting Friday) there's the "North Wales 4" rideout. See here for details. There's also a thread about accomodation (don't know if this is fully booked or not) here. The latter thread details the start point (but basically, down the A5 until just after Cerrigydrudion, hang right onto the A4501 (it's not amazingly sign posted but it's OK), then about a mile down the road on the right.)

Hopefully I'll be there on Sunday, but any time you fancy a ride, drop me a PM the day before or so.

Lastly, welcome to the mad-house!!

Re: Bangor U
 

Just moved this into the Border Patrol forum, which covers North Wales. You can chat / meet folks local to you here.

Re: Bangor U
 

Ziv , if you wanna come on the North Wales 4 rideout , I am going on Saturday and you are more than welcome to tag along :D

I kno its self glorifying W/E but thts my bike, tht gear is USUALLY what i'll roll out in, less the keks.. if u see me just chase me down and introduce urself.. or beep n flash and i'll stop n wait... hope to see u around kid =D

Re: Bangor U
 

Love to mate, where n when u wanna meet... basically newhere upper/lower bangor i can find no problem... not familiarised myself too much but DO let me kno.. tttys badger =D

For the record my names Ric =]

Re: Bangor U
 

Easiest thing to do is come down the A55 towards Colwyn Bay and I can meet up with you there . It`s about 25 miles away from Bangor . I`ll find out times and meeting places etc and can escort you over to the meeting point , these rideouts are great fun :D . Will find out more details if yer up for it .

Re: Bangor U
 

Ric, I'll keep an eye out around town. That photo looks like it's taken on one of the back roads just behind Aldi (I think the supermarket is Aldi), could be wrong though.

Badger, just a thought, but what about a meet up in BYC? Avoids either one of you going out of your way, and if you were to meet at Shell, you'd pretty much be fueled up for the first run on Sat morning with the rowdy lot.

Unfortunately night shifts will keep me off the bike on Sat morn (unless I get a lot of sleep during the day on Fri).

Re: Bangor U
 

That`s true Baph , if he knows his way to Betwys-Y-Coed we could get to cerrigydridion that way .

Re: Bangor U
 

Guys i really dont kno a great deal of places, but i am getting to kno them, im going further a field each day so i am DEFFINATLY up for it, once we arrange a meet place n time i'll just use google earth or summit. These ride outs.. r they over night or could i return to bangor U? i only ask because i am a poor student and have no camping gear with me :(

Re: Bangor U
 

Well I won`t be staying overnight , so you can follow me back , Don`t worry feller , we shall get you there and back without any worry whatsoever :D . There is a bunkhouse that people are staying in but you can get back to Bangor quite easily with the minimum of fuss .

Re: Bangor U
 

Oh awesome... hey badger what do u ride out on? like to kno a bit about the boyo's im gonna b rolling with, names and ages ppl :D

Re: Bangor U
 

53 plate Candy Grand Blue Sv650S with added bits , Name is xXBADGERXx and I`m 37 LOL .

Re: Bangor U
 

OMG ftw.. im young blood so not a seasoned rider at all, been on 2 wheels since july :D not really had the right weather for it.. i like the use of alias' so yeah lets stick with Ziv for me =] for the record im 21 studyin psych, i assume uve seen the happy lil pic i linked of myself on my bike? if u spot my colours man u gotta holla !

Re: Bangor U
 

You don`t often catch me around that neck of the woods , I tend to roam the wilds this side of Colwyn Bay , but after showing you around some of the better routes around here I am sure I will spot you about . Another thing to consider is that now you live here , get yourself booked on a FREE Bikesafe course , normally £80 but free to residents on Conwy County and Denbighshire County . Well worth it to hone your safety skills making you a smoother rider ;)

Re: Bangor U
 

omg tht sounds awesome, certainly give it a go, thnx for the heads up, neway off out to look for adventure and fun.. keep me posted on this ride out badger, countingon ya :D

Have a look here mate , I reckon we should meet in Betwys and fuel up there say around 8:15 , gives us plenty of time to get there and meet and greet the fellow members :D

Re: Bangor U
 

Ziv, a little clarification on the above for you (since you've not long since moved to the area).

If you head out of Bangor heading towards Llandegai (easiest for me to desribe it if you come around the U bend at the bus stn - one way road - turn right at the end, and follow your nose to the A55. Once there, don't go onto the A55, but go straight ahead at the roundabout, then straight again at the mini roundabout.

That will put you on the A5. Follow this for around 20miles, and you'll drop down a long hill, the other side of the road is a dual carriageway, but the way you're going will be single. This is the lead into Betws-y-coed.

Follow through the town on the same road, you'll know you're in the right place as you'll pass loads of outdoors shops. Eventually, there's a Shell petrol station on the right side.

Re: Bangor U
 

Right guys, this sounds like a great plan, Badger i'll meet u at 815 exactly where baph specified.. ne idea what time i'd need to leave.. assuming im doing the speed limit all the way (probs will tbh cos not used to the bendy roads here) might bring a buddy pillion too who sortve hasa curiusity bout bikes, i assume other riders will b there with pillions neway so yeah!

anyway badger let me kno a time i should set off and i look forward to meeting u and baph :)

cant wait boyo :smt026

Re: Bangor U
 

I won't be there on the Saturday as I'm working a night shift Friday night. I'm hoping to get down to the bunk house on Sunday (so if you do come back home Saturday, we could ride down together on Sunday - if I'm there & not too tired).

As for setting off time to get to Betws-y-coed, it's approx 25 miles, and mostly NSL areas, with a couple of 30mph limits thrown in, so allow 30-45 mins for getting there. Even if you get there early & have to wait a little, it's better IMO as it'll be your first time riding that way.

(If you could average 60mph over the distance, in theory, it'd take 25mins - 1mile/min).

Re: Bangor U
 

I`m getting up at 7 , I will leave my house by 7:45 and I will pootle over to B-Y-C and meet up with you there , if you are there early then it`s a bonus , we can get up to the bunkhouse and laugh at the bleary eyed party goers LOL . Half an hour is MORE than enough time for me to get to Betwys . I can PM my mobile number top you in case you have any difficulties along the way such as Losing direction or Beakdowns . Always handy to have other numbers of members on rideouts anyway .

Re: Bangor U
 

Too tru, that would b a big help, and im very much looking forward to it.. i'll time myself to b early just in case :compress:

Re: Bangor U
 

Mobile number PM`d to you :D

Re: Bangor U
 

+1. Drop me a text or PM me your number back, and I can keep you informed about Sunday morning. :)

Re: Bangor U
 

PM`d the number to you as well Baph :D

Re: Bangor U
 

That's cool, but I already had it. :smt047

Re: Bangor U
