Liverpool was a good ride a few years ago, even though it was a wet one ..

Christmas is always a busy time, Don't think i'll be able to make it

Yeah, Christmas could be tricky for me too.

We went on Jan 24th this year, a good turn out and got us through the New Year blues.

We did it around pay day in Jan as Christmas itself is an expensive time, for many.

The route we used was:

Meet at Lime St Stn.
Concert Square
Lady Of Mann
Stop for photos in front of the Liver Building
Pump house near Albert Dock
Baltic Fleet
Palm Sugar.

Not being funny mate but why not just jump on the already established rides with the rest of us instead if trying to organise rides in the same towns/cities but on different dates than what is usually put in place by whichever Radster usually organises that particular ride.

I don't think any of us has met you so why not come along and meet us/ get to know us. There's more than enough rides packed into the year already without trying to pack more in especially in places where there already is one.

Only because i've missed them or haven't seen them that's all and all the ones I seem to get notifications of are down south for some bizarre reason so as soon as that changes i'll be on the rides up here on face book I only get notications of rides that are down south to but I don't know why that is so I thought i'D try and meet up with like minded dudes so I just thought i'D try doing this
so are there any rides in the north west around the Xmas period either before or after the festivities???

Notifications on what ? Facebook !!!

Fook that shit... keep an eye on the members events and gatherings section. When the dates for the rides have been organised (usually in the new year) they'll be posted in there.

The last couple of years we've done the Wigan toy ride (donating toy and games to the children's ward at Wigan general) a week or two before xmas dressed in Santa suits but not sure if it's happening this year.

Also like Dan said there's been a Liverpool ride in the new year the last few years... not sure if this happening either tbh.

Don't worry though mate there's plenty of rides in the North West throughout the year to tickle everyone's fancy....

Blackpool x 2
Bury/Radcliffe
Chester
Leigh
Liverpool
Manchester
Southport
Wigan
Don't think I've missed any...

Plus throw a weekend in Milton Keynes in the mix and you'll be sick to fookin death of bmx if you manage to attend all these rides/events.

monkeymoped · « **Reply #11 on:** October 22, 2015, 07:44 PM »

Can't get sick of bmx ever
and now my middle lad rides and races and hes 6 someone to pass everything on to
yeah I was getting notifications from face book but as I said only for some reason only rides down south came up but I 'll keep an eye out for all the north west rides....theres usually someone that wants to ride and talk crap about bikes though never the less, I know I would
oh well thought someone would want to come out and play hahaha haha
anyway I feel a right old

now

This was Liverpool ride last year. http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,180075.0.html

My first one, it was chuffing cold but dry so up for doing it again this January if it gets the go ahead.

Me and bigbadsam sharing some wine on the train home while talking to transport police

as it was Liverpool vs Bolton in FA CUp and loads of football fans got on train

The one this year was good. Shame i couldn't stay longer, but was going to strictly come dancing live with Mrs DTTDB that evening. Hopefully i won't have to cut the next one Spen for a spa treatment or something similar

Just noticed: Shórt = Spen

monkeymoped · « **Reply #14 on:** October 22, 2015, 11:51 PM »

It looks like there is a bit of interest if one was to go ahead.

That Swan Guy · « **Reply #15 on:** October 23, 2015, 04:19 AM »

Don't feel compelled to just ride the North West rides.....

...evidently there are others out there too!

monkeymoped · « **Reply #16 on:** October 23, 2015, 02:53 PM »

It's just easier for me at the moment with my current circumstances being a bit up in the air

Just relax, and breathe.

As soon as a date's decided on one of the rides up here, it will be posted in the Members Events section, and we generally add a list of attendee's, that you can add yourself too.

There's a ride out in Deeside tomorrow, if you're itching to get out.
