Ace cafe bike + streetfighter night tonight

[simontt]

I am tempted to go but not sure after watching some of the videos on youtube. It seems some bikers use it for stunt riding where accidents involving themselves and other parked vehicles is a realistic possibility?

I only went before on a Sunday morning for breakfast (before ride out events) and it was very civilised, not sure on a Friday night?

you should be ok at this time of year Simon :)

Thanks Sirc , did not go at the end and went for dinner instead.

If a bike night is anything like the video, then I think it's too manic for me:

The car park is fine. The nutters seem to mostly frequent the street out front. We used to go up to Italian night (3rd Thursday) pretty regularly. Personally I find the pace a bit dull and full of cars...

It's OK for a breakfast once in a while and Italian night in the summer - light evenings and cheesy chips - works for me....

Will try the Italian night, thanks guys.

Went to the Friday bike night yesterday for the first time, quite a few bikes turned up (about 100) but only seen 1 other Ducati (a monster) - most other bikes are Japanese (sport) bikes, no Moto Guzzi or MV or Aprilia which was a shame. Friendly atmosphere though. There was a scooterist doing wheelie on the main road which was a bit amusing....

I second that, I live 10 mins away and I've been down twice in 12 months

I stopped going to the italian bike nights when they opened it up to cars as well. Got to the point where there wasn't room to squeeze the bikes in, and I had to park on the road outside one night. It used to be a great event that sadly turned into a joke. I think the management at the ACE need their heads tested sometimes.
