There seem to be a few new guys on here and obviously some experienced ones too, are there any regular PH meets or rideouts for bikes? I'm in the South in Surrey, anyone else?

I'm in Surrey and interested in joining ride outs......but without going too crazy as I've only had my licence and bike for a month and a half and keep scaring myself silly

I'm quite happy either going for a mad blat or just taking it nice and steady with a pub stop somewhere en route (for a lemonade of course) smile

Where in Surrey are you?

Smiler.

Sounds like we can get a few people together. Mid-week or weekend? I'd prefer an nice summers evening I think. Maybe a run up to Box Hill or somwhere?

I'm away this Sunday, but could probably do next week. Anyone up for a mid-week evening ride next week?

Same sort of position here. A south PH meet sounds great, ideally not somewhere like boxhill that will be packed anyway as Ill be a bit intimidated by that at the moment!

Where abouts are you? I'm not far from the Sussex border in Midhurst. I'm happy just to go for a ride and meet at a cafe somewhere. Bury Hill is often quiet in the evenings, a handful of bikes, but rarely ever like box hill.

Bury hill on a Thursday is bike night! The cafe stays open a bit longer to accomadate. Its not as busy as Box Hill. Because everyone on here is a bit strung out, it might be an idea to have a central meeting point (bike freindly pub!), then do a circular ride out back to the pub! Have a drink and pop off home!

Aubrey, just up the road from you in Haslemere. I'm currently trying to buy a Triumph Speed Triple so should be on the road soon. Shame there's not many around...

I'm also on the Surrey/Berkshire/Hampshire borders. I've met up with "Dudd" so far and we've had a good ride round local roads. We had mooted another meetup for this Sunday afternoon.

Would also be interested in meeting up with other two wheeled local PistonHeaders....

I'm always up for meets / ride outs, though I suspect they'll be more southern orientated as most of you seem considerably south of me.

quite a few of the folks on hooners.org forums (seems to be quite a few of us from here over there) look like having regular-ish ride outs, I just missed what looked like being a cracking one the weekend gone with them.

Not a shameless plug to get them more users, just figured there's already a decent number of us over there anyway smile

If anything's arranged I'll tag along as long as it's within reasonable distance, couple of hours perhaps. Midlands maybe? Best roads are up north mindwink

Excellent, the Speed Triples are really nice, let me know when you've got it and we'll go for a spin.
