Post by: Isleofmanfan 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

  its 243 miles each way for me,lets see how many others want to come,

or maybe suggest a venue slightly further south ?

so we can average the distances to no more than 150 miles eachway for most of us ?

Maybe what we need is to set up a members map? that way we would have a better chance of a meet up as it would be a reasonably local event and that might lead to meets on a regular basis too? and who knows these may lead to larger meets if these take off?
