I'm only about half an hour from Salisbury most of the time. Would definitely be up for rides in most of Wiltshire

Not sure who would be interested, but theres a meet every week at the Red Lion in Avebury (Britains most haunted pub apparently, so Derek Accora says!). slap bang next to the standing stones.
Went on wednesday for a beer and burger and there must have been 150+ bikes there, only downside was following a police X5 all the way from swindon !!! I'm not there next wednesday due to work but will be most weds if the weathers ok. |

Used to go there last year, but I'm usually otherwise engaged on a Wednesday now. Its not bad some nice machines turn up now and again, but its far to heavily policed over the height of the summer.
Its much nicer as the season is getting over as theres no police you can have a good little play if you're coming out of Swindon. Plus you can park in the front car park. I once went after work in October, it was tipping it down. Parked up had a cuppa then went to look at the bikes. What a disappointment, there was only mine in the car park. Fair weather bikers... grumble... grumble... |

Long time reader, first time poster. Thought I'd make the effort for the local 'massive'. Just bought a nekkid '99, call it old yeller. Coming atcha from the the capital of Wiltcher. That's Trowbridge, if you ain't from 'round 'ere.
This is my first SV after years of sports bikes and off-roaders. It's kind of a pleasant median between the two! However, my first ride, back from picking it up, was all highs and lows: engine is great, punchy and tractable, but the 30k-old suspension is flaccid and wallowy. Elka shock and Hyperpro springs are on there way, to be fitted at the weekend by myself; pointless paying someone else to do it on such a cheap bike. These mods will be followed swiftly by new tyres, and hopefully everything will then be peachy. Just the brakes, ignition barrel (so worn a lollypop stick would get it running) and a load of other 'details' to sort out. Be seeing you. |
