OOF Bikers ride out
« on: 08 June 2010, 21:38:12 »
Ok so this has been talked about a few times but never quite managed to get this off the ground. Sixstring has mentioned he is up for it, Daz before and i am sure Chris might be up for a blast?

One of the ideas was to visit H21 up in Fife, which is something i want to do, but thats more long-haul and is going to take planning. So this is more of a quick ride out idea.

Hard bit is finding someware to go with good roads, open to ideas if we just do a day or overnight at a B&B.

Wales could be an option, roads were really nice, as long as weather is good. Only couple of hours from here for most, we can meet up along the way. Daz could also make his way down?

Thoughts?

Dont forget though, where ever you go for the trip to give Tunnie a 100 mile start as he only has a BMW.   ::) ;D ;D

any group of riders, only ever as quick as the guy at the back, or the guy with the shortest tank range.

Although i'm not sure if we're allowed in the company of that badge? ;)

Anyone else got a trail bike or MX style bike ?

These are great fun, but not much good for long distance work.

I've got a Moto X bike but it's not street legal (minor detail). Could plate it up but wouldn't be allowed out in the dark :'(

Could always Super Moto it to get a ticket on it. Would be fun. :y :y

Very nice bike. Thought I was the only one on here with a proper bike  ;D

Have you tried it on tarmac ? I run proper trail tyres and get a good level of grip on tamac, enough for a small stoppie.  :y
