Sussex/Surrey meet up???
Jasper - 10/6/02 at 10:19 AM

There seem to be a few of us southern softies on the forum now, anybody from Sussex/Surrey/London fancy a get together?

Keep trying to make it to the West London breckies, but keep wanting to spend the time on the car instead as it'll be a good 3 hours round trip. Be good if we had something closer, maybe around Crawley area??

Sure we could sort that one jasper,steveM and hicost are in crawley and horsham.
Maybe Box hill would be a good venue,if you wait on the A24 long enough i'm sure you would get a cheap blade engine.
They drop like flys up there on a wet sunday


steve m - 10/6/02 at 09:32 PM

yep im up for it as long as my feet and peddles are all working
and i am in crawley so no motorway drudgery

Box Hill sounds fine to me, easy blast up the 24 - any other takers?


Dazza - 11/6/02 at 11:34 AM

Well, As i am a very Regular Box Hiller, due to my 2 wheel fettish! I will be there, lets arrange a time at newark, as i think we will all be there, except for a couple of the Northern Gits!!!!!!!

see ya all at newark!!!!


chrisg - 11/6/02 at 07:22 PM

Yeah,

Breaks my heart - I won't be at Newark

Cheers

Northern git


Dazza - 11/6/02 at 07:31 PM

you will be missed, it will be so quiet, and not a catch in site!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Jasper - 12/6/02 at 08:49 AM

Can't be at Newark, but I'm around most Sundays except last one in June, so book it up and let me know


James - 14/6/02 at 04:30 PM

The Guildfordian contingent will happily join you.

I remember ages ago someone on TOL posting saying they were from Guildford too. Anyone know who it was? Paul something I think?

Anyway, gotta go now- wouldn't want work to get any free overtime from me...

Seeya,

James


Jasper - 16/6/02 at 07:56 PM

So...how about next Sunday 23rd am at Box Hill??? Haven't been right up to Box Hill itself, presuming there's a tea stand or something???


bob - 16/6/02 at 09:08 PM

Yep sun the 23rd is fine with me,OH! unless there is overtime(double bubble sunday)

There is a cafe thingy at the main car park just off the A24.

It will have to be morning about 10am,as anywhere near midday and you'll not be able to move for bikes.

Parking would be a bit of a nightmare PM too.

Will bring calipers


Dazza - 17/6/02 at 09:14 AM

23rd sounds like a plan... you car drivers will need to be there AM, as Bob said, I on the other hand, being of the 2 wheeled nuuter clan, will be there by 11, as i will be working up till 4am sat night.

So see you all(whoever all is) there on the 23rd.


Jasper - 17/6/02 at 12:33 PM

Sunday 23rd it is then, 10am is fine with me. Bob, I'll email you a mobile number just in case.

Anybody got a finished car to bring?????

PS. Bought a ZX9R engine today, there's no stopping me now.......


Jasper - 21/6/02 at 11:56 AM

Right then, who's definitely up for it, as Bob can't come now. I don't want to be there on my tod..... I'd sooner be finishing the chassis off....

You'll recognise me by the large lapels and big red Rover....


Dazza - 22/6/02 at 02:29 AM

I will be there on my 2 wheeled baby! I will bring your calipers aswell mate....

see ya at around 11am........


James - 24/6/02 at 09:59 AM

Well, we managed 4 of us at the meet- a whole two of whom are actually building a Locost!

Anyway, great place for a meet- good idea who's ever it was!

If you're into motor bikes then you'd love it as there was about 200 of them there and a load of them doing wheelies and endo's and the like on the road outside.

So, cool place, good company and food from the cafe let's have another one there soon!

Seeya,

James


Jasper - 24/6/02 at 10:47 AM

Seconded, good place to meet. Thanks Dazza for lugging the calipers - ohhhh for some nice alloy ones. James, the invite to come and play on my build is open whenever u want. I'll give u a call when I get back from Germany.


Dazza - 24/6/02 at 11:14 AM

3rd'd, its a great place, i go there most sundays, so its easy for me to be at most meets i guess!


bob - 24/6/02 at 06:32 PM

Glad you all enjoyed it,thought it would make a good meeting point(clever me).

Not just for the bikes,its in a good position for most of the builders in surrey/sussex as well as the south west london gang.


Dazza - 24/6/02 at 08:36 PM

i agree, its a great meeting point, and should be visited more!!!!!
