Hi All,

Here is the thread to organise and arrange contact names and date for a ride out/meet to Stratford-Upon-Avon (birthplace of William Shakespeare!) one day this year to be decided.

We don't get many chances to get a good gathering of 500's together so please keep this get together in mind and I will try and suggest some dates when the weather has more of a chance of being good to us :smt017 Please reply to this thread if interested so that I can get an idea of numbers.

If you guys are Gloucester way why not meet in Abergavenny bus stop, and head for mid Wales loop, Rhayader , Llandovery (west end for grub) and black mountains and back, be willing to meet up with a few friends on smokers and take you guys around if you don't know the area.

Hi Vin

I will try and make it.

it's worth posting it on the RD/RZV500 UK Owners Club Facebook Page as well.

Rather than me suggesting a date why don't we all throw a few dates in the pot and work from that?

I will start the ball rolling June 17th

When we have a decided date and preferably an alternative date just in case of the unpredictable English weather then those interested could maybe post a route plan that they would normally take so maybe several stop points can be arranged?

I'm open to suggestions guy's? don't want to make things too difficult but until I have an idea where everyone is setting off from and the route that they would normally take (preferably good biker roads) we can not arrange anything.

Thanks

I have a pass for 17th June and can join Podman and Ade.
Do they still allow bikes to gather in Stratford or is there a suitable Biker Café or Meet around there, or somewhere equally central, we could meet at?
As we will be coming from all directions it would be good to set a time to arrive at Stratford (or other) so everyone can plan their set off time. Could even all go for a short circular ride to annoy the Fuzz :grin:
Once the details are firm, I will create an event in the RD Owners Group on Facebook, if I can work out how to do it!
Cheers Geoff

Plenty of bike specific parking in the centre Geoff, a tour around the place smoking out Bill Shakespears place sounds good as well too...Look forward to hooking up on the day, shall we all aim for a 12pm meet up?
