Default So who's UK based?

Have been visting this forum for a while now and was wondering how many of us are UK based.

So far I only know of 4.......Blackmer48, SportserSpence, Orangeade & Johnny English.

Who else is out there and what part of the UK are you?

Thanks Steelworker. I did try to do a search on the forum to see if anyone had started a similar thread before.... but missed that one.

Guess it wouldn't do any harm to have a quick recap though as we're heading towards a new riding season.

Like most on here I'm itching to get past the snow & cold to get out on the bike again...and maybe meet up a few likeminded folk.

Always good to know who's nearby...or not.

Hi, I'm in Hampshire too! Near Grayshott/Hindhead Tunnel. Once the weather gets warmer, perhaps we can meet up?

Here's a link to a map showing the whereabouts of XL Forum members - add yourself...

Hello from cold, wintry and snowy north london!

Got an 883R which is idly sitting in the garage while I use public transport to get to work

Thanks guys. Have now "got myself on the map"....as it were!

Sootysweep, Yep that's pretty close and would definitely be up for meeting up. Got a mate in Newbury with a Sportster as well (Blackmer48) and we often head down your direction so we'll be in touch when the weather picks up and arrange a meet.
