AVEBURY MEET-24th MAY

MikeyG · 10-05-2008, 10:15

Shame this is on a Saturday otherwise I'd be happy to roll up and say hi. Unfortunately, us in the motor trade rarely get weekends off unless its booked as part of a weeks holiday!

- That's a great idea. National Trust may just have somthing to say to you. Just state that you have never seen minitext in your life

*Free bump*

Hi all

I was reading this thread today and I have seen that some members may be taking their bikes:-

Please Note:

Was on my way today to Avebury Bike Meet today, being a nice day and all

And some idiot on a silver bike was drving like an idiot. He was pulled in to the left of the road with his left signal going. So I then began to overtake leaving pleanty of room. He then decided to pull away while I was overtaking and we were so close to hitting each other. I then gave him what i thought of this move

and the he 'overtook' me. But I dont think passing with about half a metre between the bikes is a good move.

I let him go on and when I reached the meet at the pub the passanger on the back was no other than Miss Piggy and HWMBO

by the look on this thread.

So guys on bikes who are going to this meet - be carful and watch out

I belive it was a Honda Hornet.......

have a good one

most bikers should be banned, they give a bad name to the few who can actually ride a bike

Octygone · 16-05-2008, 06:40

BUMP

Anyone else? This is the ONE AND ONLY meet in Wiltshire this year as far as we know,

And ignore Pudsey the only reason he is on here is to antagonise (just check his previous posts)

jollyjohn · 19-05-2008, 09:03

Hi, I will try to get there but not lunching.
Which car park? Avebury one or pub?

JJ

jollyjohn · 19-05-2008, 09:05

OOPS!! Just re read first post which makes it clear.

MissPiggy · 20-05-2008, 17:24

When: SATURDAY 24th MAY 11am

Where: RED LION PUB. AVEBURY

Postcode: SN8 1RF

We will be meeting up in Avebury about 11am. This gives everyone a chance to get there and find us before lunch!! We need to be in the pub, sitting down for 12:30-NO LATER as the pub is on a tight lunch schedule. I have booked 14ish places to eat.

After we have all eaten, we will then go for a walk/run/skip…. Around the stones and then back to the cars-plenty of time for taking pictures or weird people and the stones!

When we have walked all the way around, we will return to our cars and head off to a pub about 2 minutes down the road so we can have a nice relax and a drink or two before everyone departs and makes their way home.

If you own a bike and would like to bring that instead of your car-feel free but be wary that the police like sitting in any gap they can find as Avebury is a biker’s village!!

If you don’t know the area then either find Avebury on the map or put the postcode into your sat nav. Once you get to the pub car park-you will need to find your way around the corner and to the club car park. It isn’t two hard to find-some people will probably find it before the pub! But I have also put a map up showing how to get to the club car park.

If anyone is confused or needs to know anything-feel free to pm me.

See you all on Sat!!

x

1. MissPiggy and HWMBO (2)
2. Tigger and Paige (2)
3. dvere & Co. (2+baby) MAYBE
4. smstext+swmbo+minitext (2 maybe 3))
5. Dr Zoidberg (unless its raining) (1)
6. Johnwg + Mrs Johnwg+ Junior Johnwg + Hound (3)
7. vRS19TD (Maybe) - I haven't been to a meet for well over a year!! (maybe 1)
8. Jollyjohn (not eating)

On the map-you need to be parked in the purple circle but sat nav will lead you to near the yellow circle:

JJ

Johnwg · 23-05-2008, 21:04

We're still on for tomorrow.....

(unless it's hammering it down.. saying that we may still turn up for a pub lunch

)

Octygone · 23-05-2008, 21:39

Might be able to get there now

Dr Zoidberg · 24-05-2008, 19:39

Well , sorry for my non-attendance , but as Briskoda was down when I got up this morning I had no idea when and where people were actually meeting for this and didn't want to make a two hundred mile round trip and not be able to find anyone. I had a vague recollection which , as it happens , was totally wrong.

Next time.....
