Most active region?

[craig180]

I remember, back in the day when I were a lad, and Saxperience was young that the Yorkshire region used to be most active, with loads of meets and Wakefield being the global epicentre of Sax-P with about 97% of the members.

Some of those members have now moved on and the majority of the rest now have lives, so Yorkshire doesn't seem to be the most active nowadays. So which region is?

Do other regions still have "regular" meets or has the whole purpose of the "Regional Meets Official" now been diminished?

Discuss.

The Isle of Man region.

Oh wait, you still haven't made that for me.

South east goes up and down, Rich has weekly meets up lakeside and always trys to sort days out etc..

[Liamjrhodes]

we have our occasional meets in Castleford, but s hard now as everyone always seems to be busy now they are all grown up ;-)

[saxo_singh]

West Midlands..... bollocks! Meets happen once every now and then and even when they're organised, so many people will say yeah yeah I'll come and on the day 3 out of 20 turn up!

WM needs improving, and wm members need to fix up :homme:

[Viper]

Yorkshire used to be a fantastic region. As you said though, people have new priorities now.

I've always seen posts coming up in the EM region. Not sure if that's still the case?

[MiniGibbo]

Central south is average.. normally have around half a dozen plus cars on a regular basis.

Give me like 4 months, and I'll be with you. Trying to make my car a very special one off like wassy's.

[Matty16v]

WM is shite, mainly because the leaders or whatever you want to call them are inactive. Needs updating!

P.s. GIVE ME MY POSTS BACK

[Lacey_106]

There needs to be a specific LONDON region.

Offering yourself as RMO?

Make LSOfreak RMO. He'd be better.

[Heftydanielson]

SW, normally have a meet each month with the 106oc tagging along also.

But I think the region sections need to be made more showy, not many people know about them.

[TomT]

As said by a few people a few times, wm needs a new leader. Not sure who wants to do it but still

[Rogue_Shadow]

I've not really been a active community member, I've only attended 2 Southwest meets ( 1 without a saxo lol)
But I agree, the regional section is tucked away, likely unnoticed by newbies :geek:

[enthrone]

Sw a few of us bristol are doing mini meets every few weeks.

[Lacey_106]

i think noobs get shy about coming to meets because they think the more active users know each other really well IRL.

It needs to be more welcoming for newbies IMO.

[Moke]

Meets never happen anymore... The lists are always like 23463453 members long, yet about 5 show up.

[MiniGibbo]

Have you been to a meet before?

I went to a Bristol mini meet in my van. I find it's more about meeting people than the cars! :homme:

[P_Connor]

Have you been to a meet before?

No mate I haven't however I would like to have my car up to spec even if it's more around the people.

[jw1325]

Scotland used to be EPIC.... now me drew and stu ALWAYS try to arrange things and noone ever can make it. I blame the price of fuel! We got in trouble for having too much spamming going on in our region...

This is the reason we're all piling in together to come to Bolton Abbey!

[MiniGibbo]

You should show your face dude, dosent matter how much youve done to your car.

[Mochachino]

WM used to be the most busy a few year ago. East mids has been dead since it started. Northern Ireland is apparently really busy as this one guy wants his own section for it..

[Baz]

Miss those days of meetin you farmers every month, good times! Defo seems to be less meets on the whole of Sax-P not just certain areas.

[Lacey_106]

Yorkshire meets always used to be the best, even from my days on 106oc.

No meet will ever top this...

haha noticed that I was there (well my car at least) Must have been about 4 years ago that, I don't actually remember that meet though. That could actually be me walkin to the car in the white top

[willo-1]

Clearly didn't speak to me. Cunt.

This meet was in PFC. We at 106oc organised it, and invited you scumbags along. ;)

Just not the interest to do a meet like that again :S

[lyndon]

We had a sax-p vs 106oc the other week in Bristol, was a big one ;)

Bristol seems pretty good lately.. Well, for the pub meets we seem to arrange

[blackie_2k5]

aggree

we dont even have an RMO :/

[saxomax]

west mids is complete shite

It's the SW section. :P We're all winning!!

[craig180]

Best meet I recall was the Oliver's Mount meet at Scarborough when Nij was around

[saxomax]

who is the Rmo for westmids?

[TomT]

who is the Rmo for westmids?

jaybiss & LEE_VTR1

First on hasn't been online since jan and the second hasn't posted since last month

[t-dogg]

Ireland ftw

[Viper]

That made me think... How many other Yorkshire meets have we had a guest appearance from the Police?

[Meakin1993]

Ever hear about anything near derby

[Yates]

This is true, I'm pretty sure you haven't been to the last 2meets we've had tho:wacko:

North west is ok we have meets once every other month unless there's another big on like Bolton abbey/fcs etc coming up have had a few good turns outs over the past few which isn't bad considering we didn't have any rmo's till 6months ago

[JackCopley]

Wouldnt mind meeting you guys i always check the regional subforums but always working when the meets are :( not got the saxo anymore but ah well.
Xscape at Cas is ideal for me I'm about 10 mins away!

Fixed ;) Go answer on the pub thread too, otherwise it will be the standard 4 going :drink:
It's the SW section. :P We're all winning!!

It's cos I arrived. Fact.

/ego.

[Brettles1986]

I think everyone in the South Wales section is (A) dead or (B) in a coma

[P_Connor]

Has there/is there never a general massive one for the majority of members? Like bang slap in the middle of royal shittania?

[Jay_]

bolton abbey

[craig180]

As said, Bolton Abbey is the closest to a "national" meet we have.

I was hoping to organise a synchronised meet in the south this year but been manic!

[Lacey_106]

South is best, except for meets. The south's best meet can be found at Southend, after spending 20 minutes there you have already contracted AIDS and are considering LIDL as the best place to spend your career when you aren't pushing babies out.

[danny-vts]

Yorkshire used to be a fantastic region. As you said though, people have new priorities now.

I've always seen posts coming up in the EM region. Not sure if that's still the case?

EM is dead at minute, the last meet (matlock), nearly everyone pulled out and went to the yorkshire one instead (xscape) including myself :)

2 people turned up for the matlock meet lol

[Simon]

West Mids was good when I first signed up here, not anymore though :homme:


My first meet

Was a good meet that Simon, that was another I was at lol, not sure why I came down the West Mids though lol

[Viper]

i remember the teeside one where lee got the copper to try be clever to me, but pointed out wrong person

Haha I had forgotten about that one!

Didn't he describe you as the one with short hair while there were about 3 with similar length. When he could have said the one on crutches. Lol

[EwynSaxo]

I think everyone in the South Wales section is (A) dead or (B) in a coma

Thats cause we have about 5 members and no RMO

This is very true!

Ewynsaxo for RMO ;)

[bobertmate]

Once i get my new car this July, me and a few Saxo/106 owning mates of mine will come to meets, but i've been on here nearly 3 years now, and haven't even noticed the regional sections, they need to be more noticeable imo

[stupotvtr]

Easily Scots lot we've had at least 4 topics this year....


Hope it picks up more with it coming into better weather for meets and shows.

[Mcinabout]

WM is dead. I have only been to about 2 meets in the time ive been a member.one near birmingham and the one at stoke, but some of them i cant get the day off etc, but nothing goes on in WM really. The main times ive met up with people are at Trax and FCS 2010 and 11.

Sounds like Bolton Abbey should be quite busy this year, was quite disappointing last year.

[quiky11]

me and jamsey have been arranging 106 vs saxp meets everynow and again in the southwest, seemed like good turn outs but i dont know about just saxp meets what i do know is that its-

106oc 2-0 saxp ;) :p
