Sunday 6th - 12 noon. Monthly Meeting. Leapark Hotel, Grangemouth.
. Ride-out afterwards

Anyone fancy a bimble to the meeting with the bikes?

A great chance for some of you to get some air about them and yerselfs :)

Anyone wanting to meet up and ride to the meeting, Fife bikers leaving from our usual spot at the Bankhead Petrol station at, say 1030am?

We can maybe meet up with Perth and Northern members at the petrol station at Halbeath? at 1050?

then blast off from there to Grangemouth.
