Brighton burn up.

Just curious to know if anyone's up for doing the Brighton burn up this year on Sunday 12th of September?

The main meeting point is the Ace cafe but i'm not gonna bother with that, i'm just gonna leave directly from here, apparently they're saying there's in excess of 10,000 bikes meeting at the Ace (god knows how they'll all fit in there???) and they expect at least 50,000 bikes to converge in Brighton along the sea front!
Should be quite good, lots of trade & club stands, bike displays & shows, live bands playing and drag racing.
Even the Mrs is up for this one so i'll be riding down on the CB1000...

...Any takers?

I will be back in the Uk at that time,so count me in.

Going to be in Dorset that weekend so won't be able to make it

Cheers

Steve

I'll take a run down with you as long as it's dry.

Weather dependant I expect the missus and I will go.

WB that will be the Rocker Re-union meet on Marina Drive that I do annually with those Welsh Dragons again. Theres 5 turning up so planning to do the 2 day meet and hopefully meet up with rest of the FBR's.

Everyone is taking wags, I could ask Vivian but she charges £100 per hour, guess not then

One of the mechanics at my shop goes to East Ham for his indulgence with Asian "wags", apparently they have very competitive rates

Thought the rock'n'roll reunion ride was on the Saturday and the Brighton burn up was on the Sunday... My wife and i can only get a babysitter for the day on the Sunday so no chance of doing a weekender with you lot. We'll have to arrange a meeting point somewhere in Brighton for any riders coming down on the Sunday, it may be a bit difficult to find each with an estimated 50,000 bikes turning up

i would be up for that sounds like it could be good...

I know the place WB, I asked one of the girls what I would get for £30, she said "Aids, syphilis, crabs...............

He says it's fine as long as you use two condoms with a zip tie round the root!

The expected Welsh dragons are staying at home. Will still do the Brighton run weather permitting.

The met office is saying rain

Well i'm keeping an eye on these weather forecasts, at the moment it's looking ok, cloudy but no rain expected till mid/late afternoon but i'm taking that with a pinch of salt. If the weather's ok i'm hoping to leave at 10ish Sunday morning, your welcome to come round here for bacon butty and a brew if you want to ride down with me and a few others.

If anyone else is still up for the ride just drop me a line and we can arrange a meet en route

Dry and bright on Friday then rain overnight and through much of Saturday, although parts of London and the far southeast may remain drier. Dry and sunny on Sunday.

Cheers Ginge... Take no notice of Cabbie, if he sees a cloud he thinks a tropical storm is gonna hit!

Shame you can't make it Gums, sounds like a good day out

Would have loved to have gone on a blast on Sunday , had clearence from but as to my other post Niomi is off the road for the forseable future

I might be the only one of my mates up for sunday, the wife`s pregnant so i`ll be on my own, billy no mates all dressed up in carbon, on friday i`m off to my mate grumpy at dynospeed in southend for a remap after fitting a carbon airbox, so with a full yoshi system and air filter i hope to make the good side of 160bhp at the wheel, we`ll see,

Ah it's you! We been chatting about dispatching on Facebook firebladeriders...
Hope it goes ok with the dyno, you know your welcome to ride down with us if you wanna meet up somewhere.
It's 50/50 for the Blade or CB1000 at the moment coz the Mrs is having second thoughts

Tell D to get her ass in the kitchen where it bellongs and stop messing with the boys ride out.

I've just passed your message on mate, she's really looking forward to seeing you this weekend

Yes mate it is I, i will take you up on your kind offer to tag along with you, it will be this blades maiden voyage, i`ll pm you my number or you can pm me yours, whatever suits you.

No probs Ginge, will send a PM later this eve...
Just been down the garage with the mop and bucket for a couple of hours giving ole Bess a once over, that ACF50 is great stuff, all the road grime and shyite that got everywhere came off no problems! Even a majority of the crap come off the headers/downpipes with ease! I must admit i did get a bit carried away with it and now need another tin, the fookin winter ain't even here yet.

Bet thats proper comfy on a long ride WB.

The old girl cleans up all-right from a distance, so does the bike ha ha. I nearly bought one in the red and white but ended up in a bidding war, a bloke at brands had one about 3yrs ago with ohlins front and back, he did`nt hang about, the tdm 850 i was on eventually had him but it was a tough struggle, small track and despatch riding skills won out in the end.
