London Mini-Meet in January 2008

Hello everyone,

I've recently bumped into some people from the HUBB and we discussed having a little mini-meet in January.
Dotcaf (Charles) from planitearth.co.uk will be in London at that time – he's recently done the Uk-2-Oz route, and I'm sure he's got loads of stories to tell.

So: How about a mini-meet in the ACE cafe, Saturday the 19th of January. Around late morning/early afternoon?

(For those who don't know the ACE: it's on the North Circular. Link: intro

New Years mini-meet

Hey Bjorn ...... The link worked good straight off.

Yup, no worries matey you can count me in for this 'un. Am real keen to pick Charles's brains about a few parts of his route.

As you know I've scored a cheapo flight to Madeira, and gonna take the chance to catch up on some reading/running/riding. Evidently there's mo'bike/scooters available for not too much money, with one web-site showing they've got F650GS's for hire.

Anyway, before my fingers get verbal diarrrohea (sic) and bore everyone to death with drivel, will catch up with you again in the new year to confirm date, time and other details of the meeting. Will endevour to nose out an internet cafe in Funchal town, so should hopefully be able to stay in touch anyway. If I don't speak to or mail ya again before, then have a good christmas. Len

Looking forward to seeing some old faces and meeting some new ones. What kind of time will people aim for?

Grant and Susan in Rake, Jan 13

So where's Rake you ask, as did I. South of London, on the B2070 between Liphook and Petersfield.

We'll be at the Flying Bull for lunch at noon, and next door for the southern section BMW Club meeting, giving a slide show on our trip around the world.

They tell me if you want to come you're welcome.

We'll try to make it to the Ace too, but no promises.

Hi everyone,

Charles, Len and I will be there around 12 o'clock. I'll be on a blue 2005 F650 Dakar.
Hope to see you there for brunch & coffee & a chat!

Yep. Probably be along too.

I am easy to recognise - on an (err, umm) blue 2005 F650 Dakar!
But it does have RUS stickers on the panniers.

But I am an old git, so that makes it easier.
