We're going out to play...

[Bendy]

Do people actually bother checking the calendar / outings and excursions frequently enough that a spur of the moment decision to go play somewhere should be posted?

If someone's a newbie to an area, should they be 'adopted' by someone who'll give them a ring when people are playing nearby or help them find their way there?

Or should we just leave it be?

Do the majority of you actually *want* to go out and meet people and play about, or are you happy just reading a forum and keeping your life mostly untainted by BCF?

Your thoughts please.

I've been on this forum actively for over a year.. not yet met anyone

I have been around for years but yet never met anyone for meets and such.

Mainly because of the lack of regulars in my area plus i go out with my dad and some friends mostly.

Would be nice to meet up with some members one day though. If i could ever find my way to cadwell then maybe i will see some of you there in the summer.

I did a 400mile round trip to RnB last year on my nsr.

Realised when I got to RnB that my two stroke oil cap was sitting on my airbox.

[MikeyC]

ok, ok, no excuses!

where is boxhill exactly??? I hear bout it all the time, how often you there? Is it like a regular meet? Would love to do that in the summer, esepcially on any new big bike I get

[dainesefreak]

I haven't even managed to get to Bassetts Pole this year and it's only about 2 miles from my house. I will try and get out and meet some of you this year, probably be the Midlanders first. I didn't have a bike for most of last year, Feb to November, waiting for a bunch of thick w*nkers at an insurance company. This year with the impending birth I might not be able to do too much riding for the first couple of months or so. As a new man I will be parenting as much as the wifey!

[R1stu]

I would like to Go to more meets, Just that I tend to get lost easy!

That is why I would go to more meets if someone would ride with me!

Boxhill is nice and near (Sorta.) So I can meet people there.

And reading and Berkshire are near so I can come to more that end!

I've been here a while and only met v4forlife and danny (well said hello at least). It would be cool to meet more of you one day. Maybe next time I'm in the uk I should put a day aside

But yeah, like summy said I didn't meet many because there wern't many in my area. I gues I could have travelled a bit, but tbh I didn't really feal confident to travel far on my own. And knowing my luck I would have killed the ol CeeBee 100 miles from home rather than round the corner if I went to more meets.

[MikeyC]

ok, i'll be at the next one anytime after the last weekend of this month, payday!

Hi

Maybe we could have a small pop window on screen to post a "we are going out" message or 2. Limited number of people to update it and only a very short message (such as "look at this thread for more details").

Failing that, how about we persuade Korn to set up a service on here to send text messages, and then we can automate text message invites.

All the best

Keith

This adopting stuff sounds quite sinister....is it?

[hush]

I'm up for getting involved. I'd have been at Kev and Jo's party, but couldn't convince my fiancee that it was a good idea at the time, and I couldn't make the trip down on my bike alone - I'd have got lost...

But I will come to something and be available for general mick taking when I arrive
