MrGincredible Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Hi all, Just bought my first Yamaha - XJ6N after a few years away from riding. looking forward to getting back into thew swing of it. Wondering if anyone knew of any good meets in the North West? Cheers!
Moderator Airhead Posted October 23, 2012 Moderator Posted October 23, 2012 Greetings and mr Gin... The best meeting place local to you is Rivington Barn near Bolton
Moderator DirtyDT Posted October 23, 2012 Moderator Posted October 23, 2012 Hi and welcome to the forum.
Ventura Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Welcome Mr Gincredible! There's quite a good bike gathering at Southport pier at the weekends these days, especially on a Sunday. Just far enough from you to make it a reasonable ride if you take the scenic route! But as Airhead says, Rivington on any Sunday too. Also Glasson Dock attracts a few. V.

Devils Bridge is also a good ride from Preston as is Ponderosa cafe in wales there is also a sprint meet at Houghton tower a few times a year, which is a good blast to the YOC
Ventura Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 its the carousel at Southport Its the same thing Drewpy The carousel is at the entrance to the Pier! Not much of a ride for me tho, I live about 300 yards from it!! Agree tho that Rivington and Devils Bridge are the best meeting points, and some great roads on the way too! Plus you'd need to go past Chorley Yamaha on the way to the Barn. Always good for a bit of 'browsing'! V.
MrGincredible Posted October 23, 2012 Author Posted October 23, 2012 Brilliant, thanks people! Used to go to the Bridge loads, might give Rivington and Southport a try! Wife says i'm not allowed in Chorley Yamaha anymore....no idea why £££££££££££££££££
