Matt, on reconsideration I think we should keep the Pub/Cafe and the Informal entries separate, but a rename may be in order. How about this (list in alphabetical order):
11 Advanced Riding Meets for improving your riding 12 Bike Shows/Exhibitions all indoor events 1 Biker Rallies/Festivals all outdoor events 10 Club Meets like owner's clubs 3 Dance Events (for John Travolta want to be's ) 6 House Parties organised by individuals 8 Informal (Irregular) Gatherings for irregular gatherings 14 Longer Trips/Weekends including trips abroad 5 Pub/Cafe (Regular) Meets for regular gatherings 9 Racing Events for watching 7 Ride-Outs enjoying the British roads 2 Rock Gigs (for head bang-ers/-ing ) 4 Speed Dating what this site is all about 13 Track Days to have fun on the track
So, maybe Pub/Cafe Meets could have the word Regular added, and the Informal have the word Irregular added, or some similar types of words, should cure the confusion.
Until someone comes up with other Categories, I think you've got most things covered.
yea, i was thinking that the informal gatherings was for like Matlock bath meets etc, where there is no specific pub/cafe but just a general herd of bikers lol. It is however quite regular now. So that will cause confusion.
Oh i don't know anymore! Why is life so hard mummy? lol
Which 'mummy' are you asking? illogical (aka Kwak) or biological? pml
Why 'SPEED DATING' events? No one on here has ever organised one, would anyone on here go if someone did?
BTW it's RIDES OUT not ride outs who's being picky?? Not moi!
Agreed Kwak that "Speed Dating" is a bit specific, but I couldn't come up with any better suggestion. :-(
As for organising one, at TVAM they organised a "Dating Run" on Sunday 29th Feb 2004. It was a mixture of Speed Dating and a Social run to a pub and back. Would have been quite fun, except for the overnight snow that put off most of the women (18m vs 5f). One of the 5f was an ex-g/f from about 3 months earlier, so we just chatted about what we thought about it!
Maybe BikerMatch could organise a similar get together and run?

Berks_Biker, Matt mentioned speed dating yonks ago, so I wasn't having a dig at YOU, I wasn't having a dig at all, I just wondered how many bikers would attend a speed dating event. Even if I wasn't dating I don't think I'd attend a speed dating event.
IMHO I think far too many men SPEED when it comes to dating, whatever happened to ROMANCE, taking things steady and woooing a woman? Yup, an old-fashioned concept but a good one.
what about the combined event suggested above then? Like a ride-out combined with a pub/cafe event that's specifically for dating? But this might exclude those who dont want to date from going on the event. What say thee?
