July Breakfast.. Norfolk/Cambs

Mr Gazza · 04-07-2019, 09:13 PM

This month we are meeting at Arbuckle's American Diner on the A10 nr Downham market.
On Sun July 14th, at 10am, for breakfast with one or two Norton Owners possibly?

Then it will be off to Ramsey in Cambs, about a 30 mile ride from Arbuckle's.
There is a large classic bike meet there at the Jolly Sailors pub. From 11am to 1pm.

Hope to see you there...

Oh! Coffee at Arbuckles. See you there.

Yeh should still be able to make this....

I'm meeting up with my friend Richard at the Services on the A10/A142 junction on the edge of Ely,at 9.30. Anyone else who would like to meet there, let me know.
We will leave the Services at 9.40 to travel on to Arebuckles.

I would've definitely come along to this but I'm already booked up this weekend.
Sorry.
See you at the Fenman, if not before.

Thanks for the bump Grumpy... Sorry you can't make it Jeff!

Looking forward to another laid back morning, meeting mates and having a nice ride out.
We might see a new recruit from Downham Market, looking for a Monster.. All good stuff..

See you there.

A Monday always passes much less painfully after such a refreshing Sunday out with mates.
Thanks to Uncle Duke, Grumpy, Richard, Dacs, Martin from the NOC and Keith who came along with his 750SSie, which he is looking to swap for a Monster or Scrambler.

Breakfast was, as always a pleasant experience in Arbuckle's, even if our waitress looked visibly tired with the requests for vegan hot chocolate and vegetarian latte!

Five of us went on to Ramsey to see the classic bike meet. It was okay, but rather more UJMs and new "retros" than worthy classics.... A couple of very nice Laverdas though and a very rare automatic Moto Guzzi.

Thanks guys for making it such a nice day out... What a tonic..

Great to catch up with everyone.
Arbuckles was an experience as always!
The Ramsey meet was not as busy this month compared to May. Maybe there was another meet near by?
I enjoyed the run up to yours Gary. The Norton is coming along nicely

Thanks for your hospitality.
The run home was dry and quick!
