Re: Dorset area meets
I can't do meets during the week unless I'm on holiday unfortunately chaps.

The point of life is not to arrive at the end with a perfectly preserved body but to slide in sideways, fully used up with a glass of champagne in hand shouting Wahooo, what a ride.

Re: Dorset area meets
Unfortunately, most of the meets tend to be weekdays and from that you can gather the average age and employment status of most of the participants!

Re: Dorset area meets
Keith/George -Regarding risk assessment, I am refraining from making this a club meet to go on the events list until I know if there is any interest beyond me and Leon.

Re: Dorset area meets
No worries. It's a shame, I would have liked to get to them but unfortunately herself and the bank manager insist I keep working for a little while longer.Unfortunately, most of the meets tend to be weekdays and from that you can gather the average age and employment status of most of the participants!

Re: Dorset area meets
Not had any response to say that there are folk interested, or able to get to, a midweek meet down here (except me and Leon) I will forget about a regular meet, may be try again next year, and just put a post in "Anyone want to join me" if I'm planning a trip out.
Thanks to Leon for a good ride and top notch lemon drizzle cake yesterday.

Re: Dorset area meets
That sounds like a plan Ian - it will work out if folk are interested.
Hope you are enjoying the new home!

Re: Dorset area meets
That's a shame Ian, it could build up to a better attended meet over time.

Re: Dorset area meets
CW's the BMW dealer in Dorchester have their own social and adventure ride club i don't really know much about it other than it exits. perhaps we should liaise with them and collaborate.

Re: Dorset area meets
Yes there will be other groups that people can link with and decide what suits them best but the original intention was to get a BM Riders Club group meeting in order to stimulate and grow the activity of this club.
