I'll not forget my very first Frith night. It was a cool (freezing in Wiltshire, but just cool in London!) January evening.
I heard lots of whistles being blown and turned around in time to see 10-12 lycra clad, LED adorned, whistle blowing "boys" rollerskating "crocodile style" across into Old Crompton(?) street
Bit of a shock introduction to London nightlife for a country boy

I have only recently joined the group and as yet havent been along to a meet. Reading these stories is making me laugh and smile though as some are very funny!

I will come along to a meet very soon so that hopefully i will have some funny memories to share.

good, look forward to seeing you. We have to use a lively location because we're all so thoroughly dull and have to rely on the local wildlife for entertainment .....

Walking up to a pizza shop round the corner in the hacking rain while baldyman, wearing the rain cover from his tank bag as a sort of super sized shower cap occasionally says in a loud and earnest voice "You lot are so embarrassing!"

Baldyman's son leaving Frith St in the wet sideways

I'm sure I'll remember more of these.. Good thread

Bringing my very lowered SV for the first time and being ushered to the top of the street so that everyone could have a go at sitting on 'London's lowest SV'.

Sam sitting on the Yamaha WR250 I truned up on at my first meet! (Jambo, any chance of the photo?)

Watching the bloke climb out of his rear door after squeezing into the parking bay in Soho Sq.

Hiding all the sweety wrappers in a certain mods bike (I HAD HELP I TELL YOU!!!) under his pillion seat.

Vox getting wound up!! (You know what I'm talking about Vox!! )

The time I went to the other Neros and asked everyone if they were from SV650.org, that was good. The time I actually met people was a letdown though
