Title: BIRMINGHAM, AL, Any group meets or other riders?
Post by: Austin4Alabama on April 08, 2013, 09:04:23 PM
Friends, Compadres, Anyone! I have been looking for a group to go ride w/ here in Birmingham but do not have much luck w/ the "streetfighter or sport bike" style riders. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance! :thumb:

1 forget about one specific type of bike.

2 join bamarides.com/forum and

3 say "ohgood" sent you.

you'll get a warm welcome, and there are quite a few rides this weekend, with different skill levels and destinations. don't limit yourself to just one crowd.

typically we'll have 2-3 harleys, 2-3 dualsports, 2-3 supersports, a standard, and a classic on most rides.

ill be on 2 different rides this weekend myself. there is a skills day that benefits kids this weekend I'm going to check out. if its anything like the gymkhanas we (bamarides put on) it should be awesome.

show up and have a blast !

I'm all over the place there. if there is a GP8 posted, go ! flashmobs are popular too , but its mix n mingle instead of ride.

and

Hey,

I just bought my first bike (GS500F K9), and I'm from the Birmingham area (live north of B'ham and work near the 280 corridor). I'm holding off until I complete the MSF course (this week), but after that I hope to be on the bike a LOT. Send me a PM if you would like to do a ride. I'm new to riding, so I'm looking for people to ride with, too.
