It seems like there are quite a few music afficionados on here who are into their dance music, or have been into going out and partying in their youth.

Would anyone be up for a ride based around a love of good music and bikes?

Anything from D+B, reggae, house, techno, hip hop, or what ever else you can think of?

will this involve us riding to a warehouse in Blackburn, then getting in a right old state? ๐Ÿ˜€

No riding to warehouse and taking un-named substances, but perhaps a visit to a pub, playing some good tunes after ๐Ÿ™‚

Special K was rife back in the day as well ๐Ÿ˜‰

is it a boom box strapped to the lead rider or what?

It is funny you should say that Jim. I went to a rave earlier this year (first one in years!) and every 200 yards there was a guy filling up balloons with gas and monged out yoofs on K crammed into cars. I drank beer and did lots of tutting ๐Ÿ™‚

White gloves and boom box are optional, but a prior history of going to raves and house parties is essential ๐Ÿ˜€

ahhhhhh Blackburn, happy days. Hanging around at Sett End waiting for the convoy to start, a mad dash in the motor to the middle of nowhere trying to avoiding the coppers and the shouts of "get yer fivers ready" whilst queuing to get in.

Take me back! 8)

Can we take in Quad Park on the way, the all nighter? Or if anyone feeling fresh and young we could take in Quad Park then Quad II. Come on, you know you want to.

Fantastic nights/days/weekends but I dont know how long that lifestyle could be kept up with no long lasting damaging side effects to mind body and soul. Shame it will never happen again, glad to be at the right place at the right time.

I used to love getting off my nut and riding my bike.

If it involves doing that then I am game, unless we are going to try straightening ourselves up with wobblies later in the session then I'm out - buggered if I;m going to spend 24hours sleeping under a rug in a squat again.

Hello my names Tom and I used to be a cheesey quaver

This was one of my haunts in the early days.

And this video is classic entertainment! And I was there on some awful concoction of lsd, speed, ecstacy, weed and beer...

Good memories but I bet I looked like a right gurning ****

This is the kind of thing I'm thinking of. Brighton perhaps? A ride around the singletrack in stamner and wild park, and then back to chillout and listen to some good tunes and talk bollox about going raving and to house parties ๐Ÿ˜€

Brighton a bit far for me probably, and seeing as my vinyl collection only starts from about 1996 seems I'm a bit young for most of you!

I feel left out... ๐Ÿ™

Ha ha been in Blackburn today, looking at furniture outlets (or whats left of them). OH commented that it is sad how many businesses are now gone leaving massive buildings empty.

I said that what you see as a sad indictment of our times, I see the opportunity for a Rave! Shame the 'kids' dont see it that way ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

Ratpack - saw them quite a few times at Various Reading raves. think they were from there?
