Hi all..

I know its the middle of November and the weather is pretty dreary at best, but I was thinking we could use the gloomy months to gather some ideas for bimbles and spuddles for next year!

I want any suggestions of either places to go or fab roads that you know about that are maybe in your own area ~ it always seems to be the case that we only find out about these gems via others we know who also ride! These can be ideas of crackin roads, a decent cafe, a picturesque route...you get the idea?

So...c'mon now...its good to share

Smiler

You already know mine my butty

Up to the vaaaalleys, tidy innit,

I'll show you mine if you show me yours ;)

ok, you're on....when you coming up...?


RIDEOUTS Badger, RIDEOUTS! {ahem!}

hmm, places to go, sounds like a good list to form.

fave roads, gotta watch that one, you never know who is watching

Calm down Billi, posting up a fav road/route is fine - who's to say we/you dont use it for a Friendly Ride where the whole ride is done at National Speed limits

We all have a few favs...West Bay, Chesil Beach Road, Torrington Common burger van, Minehead seafront....to name a few.....but it would be nice to seek out some new places, and this is where YOUR local knowledge comes in!

All I know is the burger van outside b&q in Yeovil is the dogs ding dang goolies.

Probably what's in the burgers as well

Anything twisty really
Will come up with some good locations too, trouble is not sure what gloomy months are? I used to ride all year round and after the thing in March I'm not putting the bike away just because weather is a bit cold and wet. Missed too many days off, not giving up now!
Think we can link up a few of these in one trip!

I know a pucker cake stop, and I will compose a ride that will incorporate this
