'Good loud' is an oxymoron.

That said I rarely drink anymore so things may have changed. If you do find one let us know
are them days not gone ? I thought the etiquette was have a ride keeping at the speed limit and stopping for a cream tea nowadays :DQuote:

I remember Salisbury when the Willi were open many moons ago in Salisbury, the outside was full of proper custom bikes n chops and the music were booming!! Full of proper bikers Punks and Hippy types!! Gr8 atmosphere!!
The Swan in Trowbridge were once a good night out for bikers into real ale good cider and a bit of live rock music on the odd night!!
Anyone know if it's still the same??

As far as I'm aware The White Swan is the only one left. Ive been a few times (over the years)
Usually the pub at Avebury is full of bikers in the summer - and I think its more old style cider & sawdust than cream teas and canapes.
Old style pubs like that are few and far between for many reasons.
They were invariably dirty, smelly and full of working class snobs where if the face don't fit.......
I love live music, I love good beer and I love a great atmosphere but you rarely find a pub with all 3.
There's a pretty good pub in Chippenham called The Old road Tavern.
They have live music a couple of times a month, guest ales and ciders but some of the locals are idiots.
If I go in wearing work clothes. Fine.
If I go in on the bike. Fine.
If I go in on my way out somewhere and have the audacity to be wearing a shirt or shoes, suddenly I think I'm better than everyone else.
+1 for the White Swan in Trowbridge, live music most nights. could well be the last biker pub in wiltshire?
