A few more and we'll be able to invade soon.
Have you noticed that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster is a maniac ?

Re: Hi from Yate
Welcome. I was riding through Yate on a memory trip three weeks ago on the way to Donington for WSB. It's grown since I was born in the cottage hospital!

My brother bought his first house there when they started to ruin a nice village...£ 2995 (sic).

Re: Hi from Yate
That's a little more than my parents paid for the first one and about their second I think (South Avenue Chipping Sodbury). I remember riding a pedal dumper truck around that road at about 3 years old. Much more fun than two wheels I thought at the time.

Hi Alan. Glad you found this site now that BB is gone.
Re: Hi from Yate
Have Bristol Bikers disbanded then?
Good to have you all here though, this neck of the woods is a little under-represented!

The forum had run its course after 10yrs really ... a lot had moved onto other things and the bloke who started it as a kid, got married, had lots of kids and moved to the IoM. Bloody cheek

Re: Hi from Yate
A few of us have got together and started a local group. Web page a bit pricey, so it had to be (sooooory) faceboook.Kwik wrote:The forum had run its course after 10yrs really ... a lot had moved onto other things and the bloke who started it as a kid, got married, had lots of kids and moved to the IoM.

As there are multiple sites for chatter, this is intended solely for active group riders and organisers in the Bristol and surrounding areas. Hopefully our first ride will be 24 July.
