SOHC UK meet up?
« on: December 29, 2013, 02:16:30 PM »
Does such a thing happen?

I`d be interested in viewing peoples bikes, and listening to the craic.

 I agree,but the problem of an internet based site,we are all miles apart,
and how far are members willing to travel? and are they prepared to actually ride their classic SOHC that far?

but,yes a meeting would be fun

sometimes attending an event like a classic bike day at the ace cafe can be a good way of meeting up, again distance and weather being major factors in having a good turn out
