New Members Compass Beer Rides: 7pm Departure Trafalgar Sq
http://www.lfgss.com/thread15291-22.html
Things we do well on this forum, organise and go on a regular basis to Drinks, wherever they may be, and Ride.
So in the spirit of these two elements, comes the all new,
New Members Compass Beer Rides.
It has been noted that meeting up with a big group of forumengers that you don't know in a pub can be slightly intimidating. So to make it less so, this idea has been put forward to combine drinks and rides.
Think of it as a Forum Fresher's week, without the hazing, so that the previous months new members get a chance to meet up with, and ride with fellow forumengers. Talk bikes, find out where drinks are, and get a good ride in at the same time
You can come out to the beers closest to you, or trek out to a beers on the otherside of town, safe in the knowledge that you'll be with people who a) know where they are going, and that b) someone will be heading back in your general direction so you can ride home in the company of another forumenger.
So For One Week, there will be rides from Trafalgar Sq, to the Beers,
Monday - Souths @ The Coach and Horses SW4 7EX
Tuesday - Norths @ The Flask N6 6BU or
Tuesday - South Easts @ The Roebuck SE1 4YG
Wednesday - Easts @ The Royal Inn on the Park E9 7HJ
Thursday - Wests @ The Peartree W6 8HJ
A couple of regulars from each beers will be at Trafalgar Sq from approx 6.30 for a prompt 7pm departure, and will take any new member who so wishes for a ride which will arrive at beers/polo.
The Next Compass Beer Rides will be
Aug 16-22 2010.
The route to beers from Trafalgar Sq is to be decided by the regular who will be leading the group.
So New Members start here, come down to the ride to the beers, introduce yourself to other new and regular members, get a good ride into a beers, enjoy a soothing alcoholic beverage in the soothing presence of your new found bike friends and get a warm and fuzzy feeling at being welcomed into the collective forum bosom.
