Hi guys,

Im looking at organising a Pub Meet for those of us around Bristol - but im not sure on the location yet. So where are the biker friendly pubs in and around Bristol area?

Thanks

Edd

On of the local bike clubs and Mag meet (or used to) meet at the colluseum oppisite st mary redcliffe although I'm not that keen on the place.
The Ostritch just down the hill is usually accomodating for bikes.
Theres the old fox inn on glouster road thats run by a biker couple although it's quite small.
When the weather gets better there's the apple on welsh back there's usually a few bikes out side there.
The local TRF meet at the midland spinner in wick just outside bristol.
If in doubt there is always the crown or the mothers ruin in st nicks market.

Can't think of anywhere on th out skirts I'm fairly central.

Thats a few with food for thought.

Wiltshire Bikers meet at the Salutation Inn (referred to as the Sally) at the Gibb, near Castle Combe on Thursday evenings - it's Brizzle side of Chippenham, by a few miles... Anyone's welcome, there's an open fire (especially welcome at this time of year) and the food's good 8)

Thats at the start of the fosse (well the green lane section anyway), I always want to stop for a bite but am always to muddy after play time - its about 30/40 mins ride from Bristol.

Good Shout - Brilliant pub and good and reasonable prices, I've put too much of my money in that jukebox

I think the landlord maybe a biker aswell??

+ 1.

definitely worth considering if you like your beers. Usually have 10 guest ales and 5 regulars.

... but im probably a little bias as i used to work there for most of last year. :D
