Breakfast meet, 20th May

We skipped our normal 2nd Sunday breakfast meet, as I was too phased to remember it in time!
It's back by popular demand next Sunday 20th May.

StevieL has some freebies to dish out and liked the "Sugar and Spice" at Broomholm (Bacton) so much that he's asked to go back there again this time.
Hopefully I can leave enough room for cake this time!

Sunday May 20th. 10am, Sugar and Spice, Broomholm.

Sugar and Spice is nearly a 2 hour drive from Southery, but worth it for the top nosh.

Hope you will get in touch when you're in Norfolk Albs, we could meet up for a natter.

Just discovered that May 20th is the Skeyton Goat classic show, so maybe a little run to Skeyton after breakfast?

If you plot as close as you can to a straight line, Google maps shows 62 miles. That is on B roads, and Norfolk B roads at that - mostly the B1145. So yes, about 2 hours if you're not trying too hard.

If you mean Southery, near Downham Market, yes it Is!
You are the opposite end of the county.
When in August are you on holiday?

If you are there on the bank holiday there is a huge bike meet and show just down the road at Wimbotsham.
You are also not far from Arbuckle's American Diner on the A10 at Downham Market.
I sense a meet coming on??

Well as it goes that was a pretty good Sunday meet.

No need to punch through snow drifts to get there, and had my breakfast bought for me..
Always pleasant to natter with StevieL and dacs. We had a merry time swapping magazines and badges and eating yummy food...

After breakfast dacs and I rode off to Skeyton at a lovely gait, lead by dacs. The Sun had done some good work a little further inland...

Just about the first bike I spotted was a Trike? Based on a M600, nice and simple...
To cap it off, I met the owner and directed him here, so y'never know we might get some more info on it later?
