Rose and crown bike night nr kidderminster. It's meant to be a great night but I haven't been yet as the guy I ride with can't get back from work in time and turning up on your own can be awkward...I might man up and go tonight you never know rolleyesbiggrin

Maybe we need a bit of a group on here... The southerns have one, there seems to be Noth East and North West... Even some in Scotland (must be snow mobiles, not motorbikes)

Jacks Hill is 90 minutes down the A5 (according to google maps, I've done it in an hour) as I'm near Cannock. The Old Rose & Crown is also over an hour even M6/M5 (and I do the M6 daily so not tonight!

I am just round the corner from CMC. Might talk to them about doing something in the evening, maybe, but I'm up for a West Mids/BC/East Mids group...

I’d be up for a Mids group for rideouts too. Passed my full test a few months ago and trying to find good rideouts to gain experience and get to meet other riders. Know what you mean about being awkward turning up on your own.
Anyone interested in arranging something for Monday from the Midlands?

Anyone at the bridgenorth biker cafe today ? Absolutely rammed, I couldn't get on the car park so had to park in a layby..

Some really nice bikes there and also some brave sods on cruisers who arrived in tin can helmets as in the sons of anarchy combined with sports tea shirts, shorts and trainers confused

Nutters!! Got to admit I love my skin too much to ride like that but it must feel good, until you come off that is ..

We are across the common from the Rose and Crown meet on Worcester Road at Stourport. Most Fridays we are out with the dog on the cliff tops overlooking the meet, it's always well attended and never any trouble with noise. On the night there was the first complaint really not sure what was the issue. Though nobody rolled up the wet Friday before, understandably, tipping it down.

Lot more aggravation the night before when some plonker binned his van just down the road at the junction with Sandy Lane. But that's standard for the caravan dwelling lot.
