182 miles round trip. Flipping great weather and the best company. Thanks Rik for organising and leading, plus a shout out to Dunc for TEC duties. Some great roads allowing progress.

I'll see you at Morrisons Tivvy weather permitting.

Many happy returns Old Phil. I see you are out and about in Wales. Enjoy your day.

Try GV Bikes in Taunton. Paul the mechanic owned Brummers Bikes a Triumph specialist and was a Triumph Master Tech for years.
