Midland Bikers

[makatya]

Well summer is hopefully on route and so I am looking to meet up with fellow bikers for a run out around the West Midlands. Based in Walsall so if there is anyone on here that would like to go out for a run let me know.

[randlemarcus]

Might be tempted. Central Brum for me during the week.

I'm in Walsall also.

Will be interested in any runs out. work, business & wife permitting.

[IsMad]

I am in Sutton Coldfield and would be up for this availability dependent

[makatya]

Nice one. I will email you guys when the weather gets better to see if anyone is available for a blat out.

Based in Solihull and likewise up for rides out. Quite new to the area so not really met many bikers so far, other than colleagues.

I've not much recent biking experience, although had licence for many years, and I don't ride regularly. If that is ok then give me a shout too. Have an Aprilia RS250 at present.

ETA: Are any of you going to the Aprilia test ride event June 14th? It is at the Aprilia dealership west side of B'ham. IIRC it is called Speedaway MCs.

I found it through the Aprilia website and have booked a slot on the Tuono, Shiver and Mana (gotta see what an auto gearbox is like on a bike! I am too young to have had a chance to ride the Honda auto of the 1970s!)

Anyway, might be a convenient place to meet up with you if you are based near there?

Come on G! Get your bike on the road and lets hit the road and find some nice lanes. Glad to hear that you are getting onto two wheels as well as driving your mad TVR's!

Hi Rob. You got a bike at the moment? I am kewl for Saturday or Sunday weather permitting.

[makatya]

Don't worry, even though I have been on bikes for years, just looking for a good run out with nice roads and end up at a nice place to have some good chat so all levels of bikers welcome.
