I love this site with a passion. I found all the biker events to go too....I know that there is a lot going on in the midlands but hey! Im from Aberdeen and Im willing to make the effort....Minger is in southampton and I talk to him all the time..........Dont think its about location I think its more to do with meeting like minded individuals. Im meeting up with Duns and Cent at Durham and it's thanx to this site.......I also found my new love on here purely by accident......like i say I love this site well worth the dosh......(She also lives in the Midlands so can't be bad)
Nice one Nanu!
Last year I was going out with a Fifer, who although not off this site, i met through a rally i went to with my good mates off here, but i was off work at the time, as soon as I went back it got difficult to carry on, as he worked long shifts, but we have stayed good friends.
Having said that I know Cassie (Scotland) and Blues (England) have made it work and it works very well for them.
* I remembered.. it was Cassie who said i should be called Koala! lol
What has this site dun 4 me........where do I start, well bak last yr wen I joined i woz about as low as i could get, I woz livin in temporary accomodation due 2 a bad house fire, me marriage broke up 3 wks afta this, I woz havin major problems wiv my kids, I have no family support network. I woz sat on the laptop in the house on me own feelin really bad, wouldnt talk 2 any1 wouldnt answer the door 2 any1, i woz flicking thro bike clubs and sites and stumbled across BM and thought wot the heck and joined. I started by just goin in the chatroom n speakin 2 peeps, i wasnt brave enough 2 go and meet any1, then a member who I spoke 2 a lot said, why didnt i come 2 a meet at the cat n fiddle, I debated wot 2 do, they offered 2 meet me part way and ride up there wiv me. I sat there n though, do I just keep goin down n down or do I pik meself up n go and meet peeps so this is wot I did. Since then I have made some very gud freinds and met loads of other people thro the site. These people have supported me and helped me thro all the bad times ive had. I'm not goin 2 name these peeps cos wen they read this they will know who they r. I know I can log on2 bm, have a laugh readin the forums, go in2 chat and enjoy the company of talking 2 any1 who is there. Athough i have not met all the peeps I speak 2 on a regular basis in there I feel that I know them and they r my freinds. So without BM i fink I would still be sumwhere in the gutter tryin 2 pik myself up.I've yet 2 meet that sum1 special, but if it happen it happens, I aint holdin me breath on that 1. So a big thankyou 2 BM from me and a big thankyou 2 all my freinds and 2 all the peeps I've yet 2 meet.
I can't remember what actually made me join this site but I know that it wasn't for romance (I have always had 'seeking:nobody' since Day One). When I joined it was more of a social than a dating site and there were quite a few technical discussions as well as the humorous/downright weird topics. I prefer to ride on my own rather than in groups and don't frequent pubs so this site is a good place for me to hear views from people who use the same form of transport as I do.
I sit down a lot more since I joined, either on the computer chair or some kind person's pillion seat
A long time ago I met someone special and got engaged but sadly it didn't work out for us.
I'm still here cos no one wants me *sob*
Don't look at me ROFL
Soz I couldn't resist, seriuosly I reckon it won't be long before you're dating.
Newbies seem to get dating shortly after they join
You, a cynic, Cissy??? Nahhh, you're kidding, surely? Oh all right then, maybe just the teensiest little bit.
After I found myself looking after the kids on my own over three years ago (and intermittently for quite a time before that), and particularly after I lost my mother in law nearly two years ago, I decided I had to widen my circle of friends PDQ. Somehow I drifted into this site via BikeChat, and haven't really looked back since. Thanks, folks.
Yeah Ian I meant you amongst others........That was very nice thing to say Tracey (Drobess) Im glad to be your one of your friends on the old chat......Im like you I aint met everyone I talk to on this site and I do feel like I know them all personally but I am going to try and meet as many as possible, hopefully I can meet up with a lot of you at a christmas bash or something?... All you cynical girls out there just wait and see Mr right is just round the corner Im sure.......If not you have got a great big family of hairy biker guys right here to chat to
I have met some of the nicest people on this earth on this site and i wont hear a bad thing about it . you get good and bad in all walks of life, i just hope i'm not one of the bad
