Hello,
New to this forum and would like to say a big hello to everyone having purchased a Bulldog 6 months ago. I am hoping to attend next years international rally in Switzerland and see some other bulldogs - they are pretty rare in England. Great bike meets all the criteria I could wish for - upright, shaft, v twin, air cooled and looks fantastic. Hope to post more often in the near future.
Best Wishes

[nissbird]

Philip formally, Phil more usually, Philly sometimes by ladies and on the odd occasion Pip by older men. The last one happens less and less the further I climb up the age ladder.

Whats your name?

[MissBitch]

Hey Philip,

My name is Atty.....

See you next Year at the interrally in Switzerland
You have not to ride alone because there are a view bulldog riders from england who are going there to.
I think you have already read this in other Threats on the board .

Hello Phil,

I guess you have already realized that there is another member coming from Hereford as well.
This means, nor reason to ride all alone to Switzerland next year.

Regards

Ralf

Hi Ralph,

Yes, John W is his name and I think he is the same guy I met in a petrol station a few months ago (Hereford is a small town). I've left him my number on another Bulldog forum. Hopefully he will get in touch, if not I shall pm him.

What do guys get up to on these meetings?

Regards
Philip

Phil.

Read your earlier posts and John can tell you about the annual trips to Germany (he's been to 9 already).

The Bulldog rally is brilliant and well worth the journey. You get to stay in 5* hotels that have exquisite food, you can drink loads of beer and you get to ride out with almost 100 Bulldogs. All this with the friendliest bunch of bikers this side of Tehran.

I can't make the 2014 rally (big family holiday in S. France) but I believe John/Mick will be going and possibly Jake & Andy from UK.

We UK dog owners should meet up, maybe even start our own BOC. We could call it BOC UK!

Glad you found the Bulldog, I reckon it is about the best bike around.

Cheers

Ade

Thanks for the info Ade, the thought of riding around Switzerland with a group of Bulldogs sounds brilliant.

I came back to motorcycling four years ago and bought an Intruder M800, because I wanted a v-twin with a shaft and an easy way of riding, however, I found the cruiser position of riding, which was new to me, uncomfortable over any sort of distance. The thing was, I wanted a bike that would give me an upright position with a v-twin and a shaft drive and apart from a Moto Guzzi the Bulldog was the only one that could do this and look great into the bargain.

All the best
