Looking for some folk local to meet up with for some ride outs when the better weather comes. Usually out and about myself but getting boring now. All my mates have either sold up and got into something else or just don't like bikes (weirdos)

Bikers Cove

by simpss774 » Thu Aug 11, 2016 11:59 pm

For any bikers in the Lothians, Borders and Fife area, others are welcome but it might be a bit far. There is a regular meet at Bikers Cove is South Queenferry postcode EH30 9TA. You can have a look on facebook @ onclick= window.open(this.href);return false; and Twitter @TheBikersCove50. Great place for a quick bite, a cuppa and a natter. Will also post this on General Meets.

Just a thread to stick up any info when you're heading out for a quick blast instead of a new thread every time. Thinking a few dozen posts are easier to look through than a few dozen scattered topics.

So further from Stu kindly pointing out our bad posting habits :twisted: this thread is for posting when you decide to go out, maybe on the off chance or even plan a couple of days in advance. Whatever you decide.

I'll start..... this Sunday coming. 9th Nov. Glasgow, weather permitting. So far...

October/November rideout for the north of the border folk!

by martynmcg » Sun Oct 05, 2014 6:37 pm

Or even south of the border folk, if they are willing to travel!

Appreciate that it's starting to get colder (and will continue to do so) but that doesn't mean to say we can't ride out. Nothing a fleece and a spine can't solve :mrgreen:

I'll be back in the UK around the 3rd week in October until mid-November, so I was possibly thinking about hitting the A82/A83 to Inveraray or even head down to Troon or Saltcoats.... somewhere that does a decent fish supper! Nothing is set in stone, we can...

Had an explore and Abington to the A76 via Leadhills and Wanlockhead (B797) is a great road and climb

... 1&t=m&z=11

The Mennock Pass down from Wanlockhead to the A76 is the best part, twisting, narrow and I saw people panning for gold in the river!

The road surface is good, just watch for sheep.

20+ Girls Bikers Passed on Rideout

by PabloK42 » Mon May 21, 2012 11:09 am

Me and my brother took the bikes out for a quick rideout over to Loch Lomond as the weather was fine last night. The ride was was better by passing a group of 20+ female riders (Pretty sure they were all female) going the other way led by a lassie in a pink helmet!

It was great to see, and by the way, everyone one the waved/nodded (Per previous nodding topic) - Thats the way it should be.

If you were one of these females - Made my night, you all looked great!!

Pitlochry to Blairgowrie?

by Tuiroo » Thu Mar 22, 2012 9:45 pm

Hey,

I am thinking of heading up (from Edinburgh) to visit a friend in Pitlochry. Going to take the M90 then A9 to get there without much fuss (looks a bit dull though). I was thinking about enjoying the ride back and taking the A924 then A93 over to Blairgowrie. Does anyone know this road? Anything to watch out for? Was then going to follow the A93 to Perth then back on the motorway for the last bit home. Any suggestions for alternative must ride routes in the area?
