cars noo probs...bring a lid and gear tho just in case its brighter and u can scrounge a pilly fer a short ride out..
we wil be there regardless, but its only a few miles fer us!
looking fwd to it..
Having seen the forecast for today I'm wondering why I'm still considering the bike. The tyres are squared off and almost out of tread and the roads are probably full of salt which will eat the bike alive. But it is only 15miles and will be last chance this year. See you all later.
Morning all. I think the important thing is that folk are there. Car, bike whatever. It's a SOCIAL thing....... (Although ---- car? Last Saturday before crimble? Dartford crossing.....?) I'd sooner walk! It's December--- All the rain we've had of late means the salt is gone and it's certainly not cold...... So it's gonna rain, prolly. Pah! It's December !!! I'll be there. My waterproofs can take it ! Y'all ride (drive) safe.
Well Said Wonnie!!
Yes Its a shame weather isnt better but salt wil be washed away and its not really cold. We can stay in the warm cafe longer or we can perhaps use any cars present and go for a little jaunt out or whatever.....see how it goes huh.
See U at 11am then...
Sorry folks I've just woke up. Heavy night on the beer. Apart from xmas day and the 28th when I'm away for three day. I'm now off work until the 3rd of january if anyone up for a ride.
Had a wonderful day today. Well done to Andy and Santa for organising presents and trip out. Hope the intrepid bikers dry out soon. Great to meet you all and look forward to many more gatherings in the new year.
Hi all, just wanted to say Thank's to Rosso and WuMF for getting this thing together, it was a real pleasure meeting all of you.
Here's to the next meet.
Now, must go and sooth one's self in the bath, lol.
Best wishes

Brilliant day. Was good to meet up with friends old and new. The secret santa caused a stir in the cafe, don't know why though. And the weather may have been a little damp but at least i know my waterproofs still work. Have a good xmas everybody, and a great new year. We even had people from abroad (well essex) come, even if it was in a car.
Thanks for posting the pics Andy and Sarah - they are great -really capture the day. It was good fun. Looking forward to the next one and turning up with correct number of wheels!
Hi all,

First off I want to say "Well done!" to those intrepid souls who turned up on their bikes....and then rode from the Blue and White Cafe down to Dover Castle! Not only was it pissing down but there was dense fog as well....one thing I have never enjoyed on a bike is riding in thick fog! Many, many thanks to Andy and Sarah for organising the whole day! Not to mention, thanks to all of you who turned up! It was good to meet you all. Apologies for not being able to stay for the whole day. Pennies are indeed tight these days! Ho Hum! Anyway I wish you all a great Xmas and All the Best for the New Year!!
