Which region is Brum??

Hi All

Just paid up my subs, now waiting for my membership stuff. Problem is I'm not sure what reigon Birmingham comes under. The map says Staffs however it's generally accepted that Brum is in West Mids.. Confused..

You could always join us lot over at the Black country and wyvern (region 25), as long as you don't mind mixing with us yam yams.

Not many areas or even other people outside Brum would be associated with Brum. I think you will find it's an island all on it's own, unclaimed by anyone, with taste anyway

Welcome to the madhouse T-Bear!


We don't actually have a hard and fast rule as to regional borders. You're free to go to any regional meet of your choice, bearing in mind such variables as when and where they meet, and what kind of idiots you're likely to end up socialising with.

As a guideline; the Staffordshire region is essentially dormant, the incumbent Reps have made a few limited efforts to re-vitalise things but without much success.

Region 9 (South & West Midlands) is reasonably well attended, see their webpage for details of meets.

Region 25 (Black Country & Wyvern) seem to be a decent bunch , most of them are Brummies too despite their claims to the contrary.

Awaiting incoming!

You can't call a Yam Yam a Brummie, that's like calling a Manc a Scoucer.

From the man who sold his Harley for a Triumph, what would you know about Taste.
