August - what's going on!

Postby Jim » Wed Jul 29, 2015 7:47 am

Well, you certainly could ask "what's going on" about the weather! It's been very changeable to say the least, with lots of rain and feeling cool, with only the occasional day when it's dry and sunny! So the message is when the weather does settle down and turn good, try and get out on the scoot as much as possible and make the most of it!

Here is what's in our diary for August-

SATURDAY 8TH - BERNIE'S BIG NIGHT OUT

As you know, top DJ Bernie does lots of gigs every month in and around the Bristol area, and on this night, he is putting on another BERNIE'S BIG NIGHT OUT at the now famous HAWAIIAN BAR at the Sportsmans Pub in COLSTON STREET. Fabulous music all played on old 45s, fair priced drinks, fantastic dance floor and a very friendly crowd! What's not to like!

SUNDAY 9TH - COLIN'S RIDE OF REMEMBRANCE

We have this special ride out every year to remember and celebrate our wonderful club mate Colin, who very sadly passed away in January 2014.The original date for this ride this year was unfortunately cancelled due to heavy rain, and has now been re-scheduled for this day.

We'll be meeting at 10:30AM AT THE ARNOLFINI for 11:00 departure. We will be riding to WELLS, stopping off in the Square for a nice hot pastie, then on to GLASTONBURY to check out the hippies and raise a glass of ale to remember and honour dear old Colin. This ride last year was very well attended and really enjoyable, so why not join us for this one and let's see if we can get another great turnout!

SATURDAY 15TH - BRISTOL BIKE SHOW

This annual event is held around the CORN STREET area of central Bristol, and every year motorbikes and scooters of every description go on display for the general public to marvel at! This is always a very enjoyable event with a great atmosphere, so why not come on down and join us and show off your scooter!

You will need to be there BEFORE 9:00AM - after that you might have to push your scoot in. The marshals will advise you where to go! Hope to see you all there!

AUGUST BANK HOLIDAY - IOW OR BRIGHTON

Wherever you are going, hope the sun is shining and you have a fab time!

I'll be posting up a reminder during the week leading up to each event. So keep an eye on this forum for more information and any updates and also for details of any impromptu meet ups! Let's hope that the summer weather finally starts soon!

Hope to see you all at some point!

Take care and ride safe!
