18th is the only date I can make it.
Think i've mentioned it on another thread but don't know which one.
I suggested this date before but Andy said it was his sons birthday that weekend.

I was also thinking of a meet later in the year at Market Harborough with a ride around Rutland water, say 20th June.
But lets get this sorted first.

Just to be really awkward, at present I can make every date except 25th April. But I'm sure that will change as we get closer to the actual dates, and I still haven't got the Bird back on the road...

16th may is week before national aprilia meet


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

I'll be one of those "I'll see on the day" people, so I vote any of the above

Was a good day last year, a rare bit of sunshine for a Falco meet. Let's hope that it stays good and we get a bit more variety of bikes this year

I'd be interested but would want to hook up with someone else heading over from this side. Also, as google says it's a 3 hr journey, I'd only stop at the "Barge" then head back after that. 18th or 9th ok for me.

FK, be glad to meet up somewhere convenient, went across last time with Paddy and Davina, if they're going this time there could be quite a group of us from over this end.

Bit of a hike from the frozen N.E. - lol - only 134 miles, what the hell eh?

I'd be up for meeting some other Aprilia fans; especially anyone on a Futura as I'm starting to fancy one.

Here is the Google map link to the barge for route planning:

175 miles is too far for me I'm afraid :smt010

Maybe us 'Southerners' could do something more central-southern-ish, I'd be up for anywhere south of Brum, West of London. (I'm in South Wales)

i suspect there will be more southerners at the national club aprilia meet - at end of may in bedfordshire

scary thing is that jadaris may will be let loose on her falco then....

Would love to see a good turn out of falcos at that one :)
