Hi everyone, my name's Gareth, I'm from west Swindon and I'm wondering which'd be better for my first bike night...Monday at 12 Bar or Tuesday at The Old Nick?

I ride a scruffy, but much loved, '76 Suzuki Kettle with unsilenced Higgspeed pipes - damn, they're loud!

I've various other bikes, but not many of them work!

See you soon.

Hi Gareth, and welcome [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]
from Swindon but not made it to a Swindon meet yet, Harp & Crown on Wedsesday is great for Smellyburgers and the Polebarn in Trowbridge on Fridays has a fabulous atmosphere and great food too. We also have a meet at the Sally (Salutation Inn) just past Castle Combe on Thursday but think this is a quieter night during the winter months.

Hi everyone, my name's Gareth, I'm from west Swindon and I'm wondering which'd be better for my first bike night...Monday at 12 Bar or Tuesday at The Old Nick?Hi Gareth - I'm in Swindon too, but I can't help answer your question directly as I've not been to 12 Bar and only been once to the Old Nick (which had good live music (http://thelogoffband.com/) on the night I went). They're both a bit further, but I'd recommend Wednesday night at the Harp & Crown, Gastard (which has recently been voted the "official" Wiltshire Bikers meet) or Friday at the Polebarn, Trowbridge.

I think 12 Bar is Morticia (http://www.wiltshirebikers.co.uk/cgi-bin/forum/YaBB.pl?action=viewprofile;username=Morticia)'s local - perhaps she can tell us what we're missing!

Hi Gareth and welcome.

I go to the 12bar and I always have a wicked time, but a couple of times it's been just me, Peter and the barman. Paul is now another regular. I sure recommend it, but it is not a busy night. If you want a busy one, the old nick's better for that. And if you go to the 12bar, let me know :)
