    Northern England Meet Empty Northern England Meet

    Post by TimReal Fri 15 Nov 2013, 11:11 am

    Just been reading about Stratford but wondered about a meet for those in the north of England. I'm in West Yorkshire but get as far down as the Peaks and as far up as North Yorkshire, plus both coasts. So anywhere in that area would be good for me.

    Intended as a general heads-up for now and in the future. No intention of selling the 500 anytime soon! (might even buy another to go with it, but don't tell the wife Twisted Evil)

    Hi, I've family in Manchester so could do the trip via Matlock Bath if that's far enough south? I go over the cat n fiddle to Macclesfield then towards Salford.

    Btw, 2 cb500's? you won't regret it, I've always had two, generally one in use and one I'm tinkering with/taking to bits/testing out something new on/using as an excuse to buy n sell surplus bits on fleabay/test riding.

    I'm up near Wigan so when I can actually ride the bike I wouldn't mind a trip over to Yorkshire Smile

    I do this! Ha ha!

    Oh, and I'm a southern soft-lad, so won't be coming to your meet up.

    Great, glad to hear there's some interest in this.

    I've no real ideas of where or when to meet though, any ideas?

    Might only be a few of us at first but maybe it could build and become a regular thing.

    Yeah, definitely after another one for the same reasons as you two. Got a nice garage for the first time in my life and the 'S' fancies a naked mate next to it. I have a vague plan about running one for 6 months and fettling the other, then swapping over etc.

    Anywhere like that's good for me. I do the Snake Pass now and then.
