[Mr Gazza]

I had really hoped to have a club run by now, but the weathermen have put me off committing to anything...Even last Sunday was forecast to be wet all day...Turned out to be fine..Tsk.!

Also my broadband has been more off than on for about a month, so reluctant (or unable) to post anything up that I can't keep abreast of.

Not really keen on Bank Holiday runs, due to all the muppets coming out, but..Who would like to meet up at the Kingfisher Cafe,Walcott 10.30 Sunday 3rd May?

Run via Horsey, Martham, Ludham, Coltishal and Buxton to end at the Norwich Aviation Museum. http://www.cnam.co.uk/

If the weather is apalling Then no worries, we can recycle the run for May 17th and end at the \Skeyton Goat instead, they have a classic show, but I need to check the times.

I am hoping to go to the weekender on the 9th. at the crack of sparrows'..If anyone wants to ride down with me please get in touch.

Those not going might be interested in the Vehicle Fest at Coltishal camp on the 10th http://www.charityse.co.uk/spring-vehicle-fest-94-c.asp ...Grumpy, WayneO and I went to this last October and I am sure I saw Olympia Valance Posing for photos, but there was other eye candy around too, but not many bikes.

.....And then there is East Kirkby on the 25th. If anyone wants to ride over with me via a very convalouted route (approx 100 miles) avoiding A roads then meet me at the Kings Head, North Elmham. At 8am.

Also thinking of going to the ShedM/C show on the 23rd, on a Megabus. If yo want to come along and save me from the nutter on the bus, I'd be pleased to hear from you...:mand:

Your thoughts welcome on any of the above.

Hi. Thanks for the email . Probably won't be able to make the ride out thus weekend( weather permitting) as i have prior arrangements . I am already going to the Bike shed show so I'll lookout for you, need to sort some kind of ID so we stand out on the crowd.

[Mr Gazza]

Good to hear from you Teddy.
Sunday's run will only happen if that's what folk want.....It could do with warming up a bit...I had some warmer rides in December than I've had this April..!.Brrr.

I will send you my mobile number and maybe my mugshot (sorry), if we don't meet before the Shed.
Someone might possibly sort a club meet up at the Shed nearer the time (Dirty?)..Looking forward to meeting some of my forum mates...:mand:

Teddy I see you have an M400 on your Avatar. That is only the second one I have ever heard of, The first is owned by He11cat from Ipswich....You should give her a shout.

[Dirty]

Yes I'll probably start a thread a bit nearer the time.

By the way if you don't know who the nutter on the bus is, it's you! :chuckle:

Thanks for jumping in Dirty...looking forward to a meet up....And yes I know, that's why I need saving..:chuckle:

[emzedder]

Unfortunately have a neck injury which means I can't ride too long but I generally make the Bacton or Walcott café on Sundays anyhow. I was maybe going to the US custom gathering on Yarmouth Plaza near the Britannia - worth a look, been some nice stuff in past years happens every month in summer. Also sometimes have a band.

[Mr Gazza]

Ouch.! Sorry to hear about your neck emzedder. It was your shoulder last time I saw you.!

As luck would have it, sitting on my Monster is the most comfortable thing I do.

Hope some warmer weather is on it's way to soothe our old bones.

I'm still not going to post Sunday's run as a dead cert until there is uptake..Weather could go either way by the looks.

Do you have dates and times for the Yarmouth meets?

[emzedder]

Apparently shoulder problem is caused by me neck ... its complicated!
I'll wobble up here anyhow unless it is stair rods ....

Take a look here ...

Thanks for the link.

Okay I will see you at the Kingfisher on Sunay if 10.30 is good for you? We can take it from there.

As you say, If it's stair rods...I don't want to wet myself..!!

[HereticBalloon]

Hi Gazza,

I won't be able to make the meet this weekend, the weather is rubbish at Beccles as well. I will be up for it in hopefully May, but certainly June!

If I can get out before that I will let you know and I will keep an eye on this thread.

Thanks for setting this up though, looking forward to meeting up with you guys.

O

[Mr Gazza]

No worries HereticBalloon....I was just about to post this.. http://www.accuweather.com/en/gb/sparham/nr9-5/weather-radar/709222

So I won't be coming out to play either..

Roll on Summer.

[Mr Gazza]

What a shame the run was a washout...I hope no-one turned out and got soaked.

I've just spoken to the Skeyton Goat about the little show they have (which emzedder suggested).

http://www.skeytongoatinn.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Car-rally-entry-info-2015.pdf

Athough billed as a car show, they have plenty of bikes exibited there too, with loads more of interest in the allocated bike parking area (hard standing, but pucks reccomended).... Sounds quite good actually.

Let's meet at 9am at the Kingfisher, Walcott. 17th May, and have another go at that run.

We can re-cycle the missed run via the coast road eastwards (aprox 50 miles), or go via Mundesley,Swayfield, North Walsham for about 15 miles of twisties. We'll vote on the morning.

Fingers crossed for better weather..:mand:

11;5;2013...Dedicated thread started for this meet. http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/showthread.php?p=508323#post508323

[emzedder]

Yes, weather was rubbish today ..... I've attended Skeyton for maybe 10 years or more and always been the "season opener" for me to catch up with all the people I haven't seen for months ... providing weather is decent .... usually a good bit of jumble too

[Mr Gazza]

..........So maybe an idea to get there a bit earlier then.??
