BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Providing the weather forecast remains the same for tomorrow, (Sunday 31st), this meet/ride will go ahead.

Meet at The Motorist in Sherburn-in-Elmet for 10:30. The circular ride will start at 11:30.

Please check the forum for any updates prior to setting off, thank you.

I've now had a Garmin Zumo 660 for 13 years, it's been faultless. A 660 will fit and take power from the BMW mount. The remote buttons will not work.

Whereabouts in the UK are you.

Weather permitting, this meet/ride may now take place on Sunday 31st March.

Don't forget to put your clocks forward an hour on Saturday night before going to bed.

Will do Chris, Rother Valley is a fair hike for me but I would consider doing it.

Hi Chris, would this route from Rother Valley be of any interest to you.
It has been developed from a Reader's Digest book, "The most amazing scenic journeys in Britain".

It's back to Saturday looking more favourable now.

Plan B would be just to have a social meet at The Motorist.

At the moment, the weather forecast is now looking better for Sunday 31st, rather than Saturday 30th.

The ride out is optional, better to have a plan and not use it, rather than not have a plan.

There has been some discussion about having a Northern Monkeys meet/ride on Sunday 31st March at/from The Motorist at Sherburn-in-Elmet. https://www.themotorist.com/

Weather permitting, is this of any interest to you.

I phoned Automoto at Bellerby, North Yorkshire, they are my nearest dealer who have taken up the Dunlop offer. They quoted me 240 GBP for a pair of RS IV GT's , ride in, ride out. I said what about fitting to loose wheels and was told the price was the same. My go to tyre fitter hasn't signed up to ...

I'm on an Easter Egg Run, the destination/end is York District Hospital. Should be chaos, see you there if you've just got out of bed.

Arrived at Strawberry Fields as planned for 09:00, will be leaving at 10:00.

Today (Sunday 24th March), I'm heading to the Strawberry Fields Cafe, https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Strawberry+Fields+Cafe/@53.9145769,-1.0555943,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x4879300e83e57b77:0x391f515932baf6a6!8m2!3d53.9145769!4d-1.0530194!16s%2Fg%2F11rvx4y0n?entry=ttu on the A19, just south...

Good idea Chris to have some regional meets/ride outs.

In consultation with a fellow NM, I'd like to suggest that Fields Garden Centre near Sherburn-in-Elmet, https://www.fieldsgardencentre.co.uk/kitchen/ becomes the new NM's HQ.

How do others feel about this idea as a base to meet up and/or have a circular ride out from.
