Anyone in Kent, UK, Wanting to Plan Something
 

As in the title, I'm looking to meet up with like minded bikers in the Uk to plan some adventures. Anything from a w/e away in Europe to something much bigger.

I'm based in North East Kent, UK, Retired from work very early and now have plenty of years for doing what I love. If you're interested in getting together and chatting about what we could do then please get in touch.

Try the International Motorcyclists Tour Club (www.imtc.org.uk) we've been doing that sort of thing since 1932.

I'm in Chilham.

Pick a pub. Pick a day. Let's see if we can get a few along.

I'm currently planning Mongolia in July 2015, shipping bikes so only 3/4 weeks away. There's two us.

Tourider - The IMTC looks interesting but East of England meeting is miles form me, so not a realistic option of just jumping on the bike and meeting for a cuppa.

Wildman - Certainly sounds like a good idea, not sure that I'm ready for anything like Mongolia but getting a few others together sounds good.

So if there's anyone in the south east of England in or around the Kent area are you interested in a get together to discuss possible future travels ???

I'm off to Spain and Portugal in May. If you want to tag along. In fact if any one want's to tag along as I have a spare place.

I first came across the IMTC perhaps 20 years ago and, at that time, found the club to be very thinly spread around the UK: just checking the website it seems to be equally thin on the ground today with no representation in, say, Scotland to name one notable absence.
Maybe a bit :offtopic:
Anyway, if it suits the current membership of the IMTC then so be it.

The IMTC has 300 ish members spread across the UK, only about 5 in Scotland. I don't think it's important where we come from, it's more important where we go. In 2015 we will have 3 Partitours (European touring holidays), 4 UK hotel weekends and 2 or 3 UK camping weekends. If we live too far from a regular meeting place we can keep in touch via our monthly magazine.

Thanks for the information: as I mentioned, it is what works for you guys so that's great - size is not everything.
I've seen your stands at places like the BMF shows (I hear that the latter are dead and gone nowadays) and those manning the stands have always represented you very well.

Trans america trail
 

Hi, Hoping to do the Trans Am Trail sometime around July 2016. Ship own bikes to U.S.
I reckon about six weeks give or take.
I'm semi retired.
Interested ?

Will be away March and back mid April/May and based in Medway, happy to have a local meet up. Also sort of retired.

Hi,
I'm away all March, back early April. If we can meet up sometime? Based in Yorkshire but often out and about so distance no problem.
Hoping to do the TAT next year, or maybe part of it?
Open to ideas but i'm set on backcountry USA.
Keep in touch if interested.
Tim.

Okay, I'll call it.

The Smarden Bell. 12:00, Sunday, 19th April.

Post here if you intend to come along and I'll give Carleton a call to let him know we're coming.

Will be back by then so add one.
