Wednesday night meets at the Peter Boat

you can show me where it is next time we are out on a ride and I guess the concensus can decide...

I know the place. It's probably easier and closer for me to get to too, being 'that bloke what comes from the other direction' (and by that I don't mean it in the same sense as bikage....).

Lovely boozer, good location although (and this may be pointless information) it can take upwards of two hours to get your food on a sunny Sunday afternoon.

ok well Mark can show me where it is when we are next out and we can check with landlord he's happy for a bunch of hairy bikers to meet there and then i'll stick a poll up to see what people think ? sound fair ?

maybe we could even have one meet at Peter Boat and one elsewhere ? as in alternate venues

Is finchingfield the pace with the pond and the bridge. Yes a very nice place. Bit far for those of us south of the river, However, a great sunday meeting place for lunch an all that.

Looks like i will be putting Doris back on the orad for the time being so looks like i may be back in the sadle.

the Antique Centre In addition much much more accessable plus it is very central for the hard core that were attending last year, almost in the middle of Chelmsford,Sth Woodham,Basildon, Billiricay,Witham and Saffend ,should be about 10miles trip for all these locations

To get there you just follow the signs A127,A13 A12 A130 ,all these roads have the brown local interest signs pointing you towards it
--------BATTLEBRIDGE ANTIQUE CENTRE[The big building]

P.S. Also some nice little ride outs from there for the summer

I love this 10 miles from all locations, now Bexleyheath, got to be about 30-40miles up there, still would be worth a blast, Actually I don't really care as long as it has a nice beer garden for the summer, pond and ducks sounds quite nice, you see in the summer the wife might come down as well, so needs to be nice

The pub is called the Barge Inn...

Im not that hairy (well - only when I dont shave )

seriously though - I think Battlesbridge would be a great place to meet - I wouldnt go to Leigh very often - I always get lost there!!

didnt think the PB was that hard to get to - followed conrad the first time and now i know exactly where it is.

but i dont mind, stopped coming to the meets cos i always ended up workin nites or couldnt be bothered when i wasnt.
im sure ill be able to find the new place by my self (im getting pretty good at this direction kinda stuff )

Battlesbridge??? LOL My bike won't even have a chance to warm up!

It's in the evening too, you sure you'll be awake by then??!!
