Just popped over here from 'the other forum' thanks to Deefer, situated just north of Bristol and I'm supposed to be picking up my new bike on Friday after an upgrade from an America, looks like its gonna be a snowy weekend tho !
Got a trip planned to Italy later in the year, done it a couple of times on the old bike, should be a bit easier on the 'bird !
I'll have a mooch around the site, see what your all about....
A little rideout we organised a couple of weeks ago, Link if anyone's around the Bristol/Gloucester area your more than welcome to join us, Pet Food Run into Bath this Sunday, if it doesn't snow !
Take it easy guys, stay safe...

You will love the bird for touring. Makes an easy job of it. Been to Italy a couple of times on mine and never get tired of riding it. 3000 miles seems a breeze.

Enjoy the forum.

Not sure if there are any, I have just posted runs in the ride out section and gone out for a ride. Keep a look for it later in the year.
Where abouts are you in Bristol?

Paul this is honestly a forum that runs itself there are no rules as it was decided that we are all adults and as such should conduct ourselves as such . Its worked damn well so far lol with some interesting erm debates from time to time. lol

Boomer and Bedowin look after the site from the goodness of their hearts basically to let fellow TBird guys just have a place to flock and talk without worrying about getting sat on for mentioning other sites or pointing people to intersting stuff. Oh and not getting bombarded by adverts or being told what to say or think. Oh we dont even care if you dont have a TBird actually either bike is bike right it just happens that most of us do have the Bird.

Post what you like post anything you want re bikes pics vids everyone likes vids n pics right oh matt likes pics of beer too ? Youll find it's oddly mature here and everyone behaves mostly lol . Thats why we love it here lol.

If you have an idea for a ride out or quick meet or anything just post it in the events flockings and rallys section. Open to all open to everyone.

One day some of you southern dwellers may try venturing up our coast, you may find you like it.

Dru,
I like your style.....you would make a great undercover agent
Infiltrating the other forum and dropping hints for others to look at this site It would make a good read !
How do you like your martini ?
