That time suits me fine. Tim we are meeting in a little parking place just off the roundabout in the centre of Bakewell. Have a look at former posts in this thread for more details.

That's great Ian, hopefully see you at around that time. I'll be on fairly noisy ktm390 duke so you'll most likely hear me coming. Hope you can make it along Tim, be good to catch up again.
Cheers. Michael

I've just found this thread. I can't resist a Yondermanns breakfast, so I'll see you on Sunday morning.

Just got back from bakewell where we met up with Ian and Trevor. Really good to finally meet you fellows and put faces to names. Many thanks and a big thumbs up to Ian for handing over the keys to both myself and big bro for a spin on his pride and joy. Very decent of you Ian so thanks again. Not forgetting Trevor, I got to say thanks for taking the time to ride up and down looking looking for us👍
The trip down was well worth it, not just for a cracking ride both down and back up but also because it served the purpose of letting me know wether to go out and look for an Enfield. I will.
Pity Tim couldn't make it, would have been good to catch up again, hopefully catch up at Stafford.
Thanks again chaps, Michael

I'll second what Mick said. Very nice to meet Ian and Trevor. Big thanks to Ian for trusting us both with a spin on his bike.

The run down to bakewell was a cracking run over the tops on the little roads. Early get go at 7am but gorgeous weather.

I think a 500 Enfield will make a great second bike, for the little roads (not that it's not capable of other stuff).

Thoroughly good day. Many thanks chaps.

(Didn't get my hands on a tart, but I did have a saus n Tom 😁😁😁)

Cheers

Andrew.

Thanks chaps it was indeed a grand meet up. I find Thumper Club people to be very agreeable people indeed and you two and your mates Rob and Tom are no exception. What I really like is it's about riding bikes and not just owning something that one thinks impresses other people. I loved your GPZ Andy and Rob's ER5, proper useable, personalised bikes that get ridden. Not forgetting Mick's KTM 390 which does its best to sound WAAAAY bigger than 400cc!

Good to see you out and about too Trevor glad you're ok. Hope to catch up with you and Tim at Wetton in July.

Thanks again chaps and looking forward to joining you on some Yorkshire roads soon.

Ian

Yep, apologies for not making it over to Bakewell fellas. Very late night the night before watching a great little band play in a local pub. The drummer is blind, and two of the guitarists are in wheelchairs, plus young Sam is autistic. They played all their own stuff and are called Angry Fish. From Sutton Coalfield, and very good.
