South West Bikers | Motorcycle Forum

Hi all,

First time on here.
I'm in Bideford North Devon and looking to join in on group rides and meet some fellow bikers.

Currently riding a Kawasaki Verseys.

Cheers Don

Hey Don, welcome to swb.

Get stuck in and keep an eye out for what's going on. Have you been riding long?

Hi Billinom8s,

Thanks!
Yes I've been riding for a few years. Came back to it after riding in my youth off road mainly.
Now on road only, enjoying the fantastic Southwest.
Will do, and hope to meet some of you soon.

Hi & Welcome Don.

Not long now until more of us start to venture out again.
Are you a sane and sensible fair weather biker..., or one of those all season bikers?

Rich.

Hi Rich,
Thanks.
I try to be sensible and dodge the bad weather and I only ride for fun rather than commuting.
Living in Devon though I resign myself to cleaning my bike a lot rather than depriving myself of regular rides!
See you on a sunny day soon I hope!

Hi Don and welcome to SWB.

There'll be plenty of rideouts coming up in 2022 that's for sure. As you're in Bideford, one that may suit you is on the 22nd February - it's Devon meets Cornwall.
The Devon riders are leaving Wellington at 08:30 a.m. stopping at Greedy's Cafe in Torrington (EX38 8DL) at 10:00 a.m. and meeting up with the Cornwall riders at Bude at 11:00 a.m. then all are heading south for lunch at the Chequered Flag.

Here's a link to the Devon part: viewtopic.php?f=37&t=101224
... and the Cornwall - Bude and onwards bit: viewtopic.php?f=37&t=101222

Think you'll find Robbo that it's on the 20th. You know, it's on the thread you posted on.

Hi Robbo,
Thanks that sounds great. I'm 10 mins from Torrington so I will meet up there.
Do I just turn up or do I need to add my name anywhere or let a specific person know?
Thanks again, much appreciated

You can add your name to the Devon riders list, or just turn up. We don't rest on ceremony but it'll help if we've got some idea of who to expect .

Welcome to SWB, see you at Bude on the 20th Feb

Thanks Robbo/ Jay,
See you on the 20th!
Cheers Don

Hi and welcome along Don ,hoping to do the ride in feb so see you there

Hi Don

Welcome to the forum hope that you enjoy it here. myself and Moose run the SWB Facebook page where we publicise any ride outs or meet ups that are happening. I also do a WhatsApp broadcast, or you can just keep a watchful eye on the ride out section. Fair to say once we get through to end of March onwards there is normally at least one ride happening each week somewhere around Devon, Cornwall , Somerset of Dorset.

If you would like to be added to the WhatsApp broadcast just drop me a private message (top right of the screen) with your phone number and I will add you to the list.

Enjoy and hope to see you on a ride out some time soon.
