Hi Guys, we have a Blackbird Association in South Africa. It is not a club in terms of paying members, but members register when joining. We then have a database with all contact details. Our website at Blackbird Association of SA and our forum at Blackbird Association of SA :: Index is where we hang out. Our members are from all parts of South Africa, and we get together on weekends for rides in the various regions. Once a year we have a national gathering, this year it will be in October (spring) at a place called Aliwal North which is fairly central in the country. The whole association kinda grows by word of mouth although we do stick an advert in the local bike magazine from time to time. We got started in August 2006 and currently have in excess of 600 active members. I can't wait for the day when we see 600 "birds" parked in a row at our national gathering. What a sight!!
The reason why we have specifically steared away from a formal club is because then you need a constitution which means rules and nothing kills something quicker than rules, so we are a completely free spirited crowd, you ride when you can, you meet up when you can and we share info as much as possible with each other. Shout if you need any help.

i,m a member of the notorious fastasphuckayrshire. blackbirds

Don't know of any clubs but I'm in Inverness

welcome?

When you have a site like this, what do you really need a club for? ....

To knock people down so you can kick them?

Welcome to Mr. Scot.

u can drive 150 miles in the pouring rain to a car meet, less fun on a bike and a small casual event may be called off if the weathers bad

check the uk blackbird forums , may be an annual bird meet

there is about 3 or 4 lined up this year so far, one has already happened. next one is end of may, there is also a scottish bash around september time. thast for the BIRD forum dont know what IXXRA has planned.

hi im in glasgow would be intrested in any kind of blackbird meets/club starting in scotland. keep in contact cheers.
