Hull and humberside locosters (mk3)

davidinhull - 18/6/13 at 08:49 PM

Hi

Once more I'm trying to organise a get together for humberside area - I'm very persistent!

Same principle, Humber bridge car park meet, 7:30, then see where we get to

Next Wednesday (26/6)

The weather has cancelled the last 2 attempts, so third time lucky

Are many if you still interested (weather permitting)?

im up for it again.....

fingers crossed for good weather...

Neadles - 19/6/13 at 09:47 PM

Yea I should be good for this!

maximus1 - 23/6/13 at 12:23 PM

I'm in I've checked the weather and it looks good for Wednesday

davidinhull - 23/6/13 at 05:52 PM

Not as much interest then?

there is enough to give it a go if the weather stays good, hopefully there will be a surge in interest nearer the time if the forcast stays good!

with a bit of luck this will be sucessful this week,

kipper - 24/6/13 at 03:43 PM

I'll be there as well.

coops222 - 25/6/13 at 04:46 PM

looks like im not going to make it tomorrow guys, fuel pumps knackered and i wont get it by tomorrow.

may pop down in the tin top tho.....

maximus1 - 26/6/13 at 08:48 AM

Weathers good are we on ?

davidinhull - 26/6/13 at 09:06 AM

According to what I can see out of the window, all looks well
Metcheck says otherwise!
Assuming stays fine I should be there
( currently have roofers doing their thing on the roof, they say they'll be gone by 5 so as long as they don't massively overrun I hope to be on time)

Davey D - 26/6/13 at 09:12 AM

maximus1 - 26/6/13 at 02:59 PM

Not for me it's not!!
I still have builders and electricians, who don't look like finishing any time soon

davidinhull - 26/6/13 at 05:47 PM

Sorry chaps
Embarrassed to say I'll not be there
The builders are still on the roof!

Enjoy

Third attempt by me to arrange this, and I've not got there on the day the weather looks OKish

If all goes well, let me know, perhaps ill get along to another

Well I made it to the Humber bridge meet after breaking down on the A63 , 6 members made it which I thought was a good turn out in view of the overcast sky, just rained a little on the way back to Selby.
One of the guys took some pics as evidence and they may appear on here.
Nice to meet you guys, lets do it again when the weather is better.
Regards Denis.

Neadles - 26/6/13 at 08:40 PM

Yep good to finally meet a few of you and yes I have a few pictures of a good looking group

Looking good guys... gutted I couldn't be there, maybe next time.

davidinhull - 27/6/13 at 07:38 PM

Very dissapppointed not to get there! ( I do now have solar PV - which is what kept me busy yesterday )
It was a u2u from coops222 that got me started with trying to arrange this and he couldn't get there either!

So as the two of us couldn't get there, I'm tempted to try again
Was it worth it? Are people still interested?
Same format or different?

D

coops222 - 27/6/13 at 08:14 PM

Definatly try again.... six turned up last night another two would have been even better.....

I for one am going to keep trying.

Fitting my new fuel pump as im typing, so all being well im out and about at the weekend.. anyone fancy meeting up would be very welcome.

Krash67 - 28/6/13 at 07:39 AM

From what I understood a few of us would meet up again on a regular basis. I would.

Davey D doing a track day on the 21st July at Blyton ........good time for a alternative meet up.

Davey D........sorry for pressing upon you the pressure to preform!

Indeed it was good to finally meet up with everyone, we should try keep it up, and maybe do a few runs out. There are a load of good roads this side of the water too, so we'll have to plan something for one weekend?

Indeed im on the track 21st July, so if anyone wants a passenger ride, then bring a helmet, and i think its Ł5 to get a passenger pass on the day, then ill be taking people out for a ride ;-)

Im taking all my waterproofs, as im sure it will wee it down at some point.

Took the car out in the rain last night. It was a bit slippery on some of the roundabouts

coops222 - 29/6/13 at 05:44 PM

having finished fitting a new fuel pump i took car out today for half hour,

but still have a few issues that need sorting.

noisey tappets and an annoying oil leak.

maximus1 - 2/7/13 at 06:47 PM

I would have been there but a school meeting ran well over.
I will be there next time , and I'm interested in any weekend meets
