• PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION WHEN ATTENDING A MONSTER MEET/RIDEOUT

    1. All riders ride at their OWN risk.
    2. The UKMOC will not be held liable for any accidents to riders/passengers/motorcycles whatsoever.
    3. You are deemed to be in control of your own motor cycle at all times
    4. Please let the ride leader know, if you are intending to 'peel off' en-route.

    ADVICE FOR THOSE LEADING RIDEOUTS

    1. Make yourself known to all persons who intend to rideout with you.
    2. We recommend the 'Drop-Off' system for group rides.
    3. Find out if everyone has ridden in a group before - if not explain any relevant info.
    4. Ensure all have enough fuel - and locate nearest garages to the meet point.
    5. Ask everybody to ride slightly 'off-set' - eg - do not directly follow the bike in front WHERE POSSIBLE. (this leaves extra braking room).
    6. HAVE FUN!

Bedfordshire Italian Car and Bike Show. July 9th.

Well, at such a close distance from the venue, I wouldn't be that fussed about missing a cuppa.
Just somewhere handy to park up while we congregate would suit me.

If I remember correctly, there's a lot of parkland around the river nene bridge thereabouts, so maybe that's what takes the sunday trade.
Dunno whether it contains any meet points or cafes though.

Just had a proper look at Savour the Flavour's website, and it says they are closed Sundays.

Higham Terriers is a 20 min ride from me along a stonking road. On Sunday i'll have a ride out and reccy cafes/meet points.
 
Spot on.

Also, I notice that there is a Little Chef at the roundabout where the A605 changes to the A45, and is crossed by the A14.
Might that be an option ?
I wouldn't mind diverting to come in via Corby, as it would avoid most of the boring bit of A14.
 
Great stuff..:thumbsup:

Wish I could be more constructive, but I know more about the far side of the Moon than this area!!
 
I've conducted a reccie of the Higham Ferriers area today, there's a service area on the A45/B663 junction by a village called Raunds, which is a about 1 mile before Higham Ferriers travelling from the A14.(The next junction travelling towards Wellingborough is for the A6) Within the services there is a MacDonalds, why don't we say 9.45am at the Maci'ds?
BP have a petrol station as well so the bikes can be fueled if necessary.

First class piece of work Grumps... :thumbsup:

See you there... :biggrin:
 
Ticket booked.

I only have an order no. and barcode no. .. no actual "ticket" as such, but presumably that will do.
 
Can you email me the ticket or a link to the page with your ticket on.. I'll print it for you and bring it along.
 
Moley, we had a smashing time.
As well as Grumpy, Utopia and Dukedesmo, we were joined by newmon and Capo at the meeting point. (Thanks to Grumps for finding that.)
So we had a party of 6 riding in. 5 splendid Monsters and a Panigale. Grumps wasted no time carding the other Monsters that were there.

Thanks for linking to Ciro's film. He is a fantastic chap and you can tell from the film how high the standard of organisation is and the passion that goes into it.

I had a nice chat with Ciro (pronounced Chiro) about holding a Weekender at his hotel. This would be an excellent venue and you couldn't wish for a better host.

A few pictures to follow.
 
Monsters arrive. Right to left... Grumpy's new 1200, Dukedesmo's 900 special, Capo's S4R (Winner in the Specials class at The 2017 "Night of the Screaming Monsters"). Utopia's 750, My M900Sie UKMOC Bike of the Year 2017 and finally Newmon's Panigale.



7 Monsters in total including that nice Tricolore... Most of any single model.



Things warm up.
