PostPosted: 13:28 - 04 Jan 2006    Post subject: Bikers from around East Anglia... Reply with quote

Right im just doing a little survey...

Basically ive been posting about this for a little while now, here and there, and was wondering if there would be any support for a new section for those around East Anglia.

I dont know about anyone else, but all the regional forums are too far from me for me to call them "My local section" you know?

Just think it would be nice if there was a section where riders from around East Anglia could post and arange meets?

The reason im posting here and not in suggestions just yet, is because i just want to see if there is any actual demand for it?

If there are infact that many riders from around East Anglia, and if they would actually make any use of it, because lets be fair, theres allready one wales forum there Wink

So yeah, lets see if anyones interested Thumbs Up

Why not just discuss them in the south east forum? After all, the brighton lot talk about brighton-y meets, the herts lot about herts-y meets, the londoners about london-y meets and the reading clique don't talk about nuffing cos we're far cliquier than the rest of you put together. Cool

Unlucky, was considering a 400 sports as a second bike, but i've had bad luck with my test.

So i got a NSR 125, still getting used to it but is goes better than my GS 125

Yeah, i mean the main reason that there isnt any real meets or rideouts around this area, is that theres not anywhere for us to post like the other sections.

If we had our own section we could easily arange some nice rideouts and such, i think this thread has shown we do have some interest in the forum Thumbs Up

I'm in Norwich, but the CG probably wouldn't be able to keep up with most of you Crying or Very sad . Must persuade my SO that we can afford my DAS and another bike...

I count myself lucky though since I can go directly to nearly everywhere in the region on my L plates: there's no motorways!

(apart from the A1M and M11 (and the M1? Where is the western limit of EA anyway? Wink )

Viva East Anglia Thumbs Up
