Grantham is nice and you are very close to lots of good biker raods / spots lincs bike safe are very active and do some really good cheap track day training. but of course lincs police are also very active.

Re: Grantham - Yellowwolf - 19-01-12
I'd definately be up for a tootle. Can't wait for the spring !
Re: Grantham - maddog04 - 20-01-12
sorry Kev, it was very much tongue in cheek
done a bit down there with the TA so can't really comment but from what others on here say, it sounds like a nice place, pity it's known for the milk snatching C**T
I'm sure you and your wife will be happy
all the best mate
Re: Grantham - Kev8261 - 22-01-12
Thanks everyone, I'm feeling much better about things, without any beer too Tonie, so it must be good :lol
We went up yesterday to sort out a couple of things, someone close has a fireblade, so hopefully I'll be in good company.
I'll post on here when we're there and sort out a day, obviously I have to negotiate a day pass to go out
Re: Grantham - Easy Rider 13 - 23-01-12

Ride safe, Su.I agree I too am in Leicester and love the Mkt Harborough to Melton run and then if I feel like it - carry on to Grantham - turn around at the roundabout just befor the town and a1 (think there is some pub on the corner) .

Let me know when you have a date free and i m sure others would join in. A breakfast followed by an Ice-cream at the sea side sounds a good day out to me. What do others in the area think?Sounds good but I ant going if there is any rain or threat their of
Re: Grantham - JKay - 31-01-12
Was on the B607 Grantham to Lincoln road on Sunday , bleedin' freezing but still good to get out on the bike
Re: Grantham - Kev8261 - 01-02-12
This all sounds great, can't wait to get there now.
Re: Grantham - Kev8261 - 28-03-12
Today is my last day living in Hertford after 51 years here. I have very mixed emotions scared and excited about the new house.
I am looking forward to not tripping over boxes all the time, finally having a garage for the bike, and hopefully a few nice rides out.
Thanks for all your comments, it would be great to see some of you at the cafe and then maybe a trip to the coast
Re: Grantham - Farjo - 28-03-12

Re: Grantham - madog - 02-04-12
I moved to Grantham about 4 years ago, nice and quiet really, town centre traffic is a nightmare, but like mentioned already once out of town theres some great roads, nip up to grantham honda for a bacon roll (cob) 2 mins from your house.
A run to Matlock Bath is compulsary for a mini fish and chips,
Drop me a message when you are settled if you fancy a run out
Simon
Re: Grantham - Kev8261 - 09-04-12
Thanks Simon, we've already gathered that the town traffic is dreadful, but so far we love it.
Going to pick the bike up from a friends garage tomorrow, I'll post when I've got a day off, and hopefully a few of us can have a run out.
