JimOD 4 Jun 2010 15:20

OK, I'll come down, just to make up the numbers. But I'm NOT buying a round for everyone there.

robinhelen 4 Jun 2010 16:31

2 of us
 
We are there from the Tuesday helping set up

Peirre O`Bollox 4 Jun 2010 19:27

My 1st HUBB meeting ............... so Im waiting to find out the program of events especially those later in the day, & since I live close enough to commute its tempting for me to sleep in my own bed at night and return the next morning(s)

dave ett 4 Jun 2010 19:37

Yup, gonna pop my HUBB cherry too. :)

Crusty 4 Jun 2010 23:17

Didn't expect to be going as we should be traveling...! :frown:

mcgiggle 5 Jun 2010 07:31

boxerbmws 7 Jun 2010 03:11

meandering on down
 
Well hello to everybody not going to the meeting by this thread. Well, actually, hello to anybody..............

Yep, coming ot the meeting as we still struggle to readjust to normal life! We went walk-a-bout last year and still suffer wanderlust after 26,385 miles of waking up, deciding where to go, then setting off. Damn. Just need to get more money and do it again............

You'll recognise us by the fact that one of us will be waving a white stick............the female one.............who is not riding the bike..................a very shiny white F800GS as it's new............

Regards

Bernard and Cathy

mj 7 Jun 2010 07:16

We'll be there (me + wife + Bobby our stuffed watchdog). Easily to spot: heavily overloaded BMW GSA with German license plates. We'll probably arrive on wednesday evening already.

jim lovell 7 Jun 2010 19:43

+1 Me and my Strom, first timer as well, will be on my own mate that was coming had a little off. Looking forward to meeting you all.

steve T 7 Jun 2010 22:30

Me and my strom second time for me it must be good

Peirre O`Bollox 8 Jun 2010 09:22

is the ground at Ripley reasonably soft to pitch the tent, or will I need rock pegs to peg out the tent?

I`ll be 1 of those NOT riding a BMW ............................

baileyad 8 Jun 2010 09:39

I'll be there and the ground doesn't need rock pegs or mallets.

greenmanalishi 8 Jun 2010 19:58

recognition
 
I have no idea how I will recognise any of you. I will be on a black 05 Transalp and will have the Jolly Roger hanging from my Tent. Keith 1954, we did say we would meet up for a beer one day! Just look for the skull and crossbones....

Will do GM .. I will look out for that subtle clue to your whereabouts .. :detective:

Incidentally, you're bound to notice me too, as I'll be the one carrying a copy of the Times (tucked under my left arm) .. and wearing a fresh pink carnation in my buttonhole.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot .. I'll be riding up, from Oggieland, on my '05 silver ST1300 Pan-European.

See you there mate .. :yes:

Desert Ways 9 Jun 2010 13:52

I'll be there, but unfotunately not on the bike......my mate who is coming with me got knocked off his bike a couple of weeks ago and so now has a broken leg which means he can't ride or even go pillion.

r.o. 10 Jun 2010 22:24

I will be there - my first visit to the UK meet, though I met some of you at the Ace Cafe in February. I'm probably going to turn up ahead of the crowd on Wednesday.
Robin.

edteamslr 11 Jun 2010 06:44

I'll be there Thurs night or Friday morning. Gonna bring my green tarp and something to sit on!

xrpaul 11 Jun 2010 19:49

ukKev 14 Jun 2010 10:50

Me & the new girlfiend who is mad enough to go out with me:D but sane enough to want to ride RTW (top part) with me on a CG 125 :scooter:

GunZenBomZ 14 Jun 2010 20:15

Myself & my personal madness will be swooping in for 2-nights. :taz:

Metrotech 14 Jun 2010 20:18

Hi

I'll be riding up on the Thursday on my TDM 850.

Just got back from a trip down through Belgium and Luxembourg and into Germany for the German TDM owner's club meeting. :mchappy:

See you there.

Steve Pickford 17 Jun 2010 23:41

Is it too late to get an entry for Ripley?

Trix 18 Jun 2010 08:22

The registration doe snot seem to have been closed which it says it will be when full so I guess you can still get in.

Susan Johnson 19 Jun 2010 16:27

HU UK Meeting is now closed for registrations!
 
Update - as of Friday, registration is closed! See http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...7-2#post293570 for more details.

BaldBaBoon 20 Jun 2010 00:03

Plan is for me to knock off work on Wed and ride up on Thursday morning.

Assuming that

A) My bike is fixed

B) Lazy gits in HR have actually processed my days off.

I will be with a rather fetching turquise and white Bmw r100 gspd.

Peirre O`Bollox 20 Jun 2010 10:13

Catering
 
Without going thru several pages of posts, can anyone tell me if the venue has onsite catering facilities, if yes will there be food available to purchase at mealtimes? & would anyone recomend the food & good ££ value

Or is it definately BYO or off site food

holodragon 20 Jun 2010 11:06

food & bar on site with extra staff laid on,I will just be taking stuff for a morning brew & some brekkie.
Andy

Peirre O`Bollox 20 Jun 2010 12:14

Thanks

Crusty 22 Jun 2010 15:11

A68
 
Anyone else from Edinburgh way heading to Ripley tomorrow..?

We're planning a leisurely ride down the lovely A68, hopefully in glorious sunshine..!

We should be at the Camien cafe, 10mls or so South of the border between 10 & 11, come and say hello..!

This will be my 4th UK meeting and I still can't wait..!:D

I'm heading down from Falkirk but on Thursday morning. I guess I'll be a day later than you on the A68.

Chris of Motocross Africa 22 Jun 2010 21:03

I'll be heading down from Glasgow tomorrow...on the train! Ha ha. Not the first time either - less reliable that the CCM but slightly more comfortable (and faster).

Chizz 22 Jun 2010 22:39

Coming Down From Inverness !
 
Taking a slightly different route - thought A7 and camp somewhere near Alston and head for Ripley on Thursday - good to see there will be a good show from north of the border!

pheonix 23 Jun 2010 10:15

Anyone heading down from Yorkshire area? Intend getting to the site around 3pm on Thursday -
