Lincolnshire Meet - Saturday 31st July

First topic message reminder :

Well the weather on Saturday doesn't look bad and it seems there are a good handful of us in the Lincs area, so....

Anyone up for a meet in the afternoon and a short ride-out?

I was going to suggest a meet at Willingham Woods, Market Rasen at say 2pm?
Time and location is flexible though so if there's a response from the south or north of the county I'm happy to re-arrange this.

It would be good to put a few faces to the site names!

chris just for your info tomorrow and no doubt the rest of the weekend in particular i've been told (by someone in the know) there will be an operation going on targeting bikers 'visors, cans and number plates' so no doubt if the weather is good they will be out and about near WW. Person i spoke to said they'll use cars for this also - as far as they are concerned they're a biker and would rather give words of advice (they sited dark visors in the evenings as an example) than tickets however they said not everyone may think like that.

and before anyone says anything no i'm not suggesting anyone on this forum would be likely to fall foul - i wouldn't dare!

Hi Susie,

Thanks for the advice. I hope everyone's taking note.

Such a shame we plan a law abiding get together and then have to survive being 'targeted' by the police.

Ahh well, two speed traps does an English summer make!

See you all on Saturday.

No comment, i would say the same tho, but if i was coming (which im not - chris) then my joy would be that i would have to do the High street to get there

I wasn't feeling particuly optimistic yesterday, it rained from about 6ish last night till about 2 in the morning

However, no idea what it's like over the rest of Lincolnshire but we have clear blue skies over waddington

See ya later

its ok here too think forecast said scattered showers clearing later so you should be ok

weather sh!te here - grey skies torrential rain and standing water - if it stops in next half hour i'll pop up - if not i don't see point in starting out in pouring rain so i'll see how it goes

Hi All,

Cloudy but bright and dry here & over Market Rasen. No dark clouds about
Will be setting off in 20mins. See you there!

Chris

Great company, great ride and great to meet you all

Must do it again between now and ToL

Just checking in.

Bike cleaned and tucked away. Great to meet up with everyone, especially Rich and Andy.
And yes Andy another time before ToL would be great, or folk can tag along for the ToL recce if they want - date to be decided.

Excellent day. Managed to steer clear of the rain, more or less. There was some nice new surfacing on some of the roads - been a while since I've done that route. Good chat and plenty of tea/coffee.

Suzie - I didn't realise the wave at Willingham Woods was 'goodbye' and not 'OK ready to go'. I can hurtling back to find you, but to no avail.
Rich - sorry we got back a bit late and you didn't have time to stop. Hope you enjoyed the ride-out.

Some pics here

Cheers,
Chris

Well I managed to get home in one piece!!

No worries - i didn't actually know where or how far you were going all i heard as you were poring over my map was cadwell, horncastle something about the A18 and asking Ellie if she knew the way tho tbh i was a bit, but not much surprised, you were so apparently dismissive when i said goodbye.
