Thank-you.

Don't forget......ANYONE can organise and run a rideout.

22 Bikes turned up for a on a November morning rideout ... 8)

The ride back from Westbay was good, 6 of us, with Kelly, Jonno and me doing a bit of formation sliding around the corners... :shock:

Played 'Silly Buggers' at all the sets of lights in Exeter... Including Drag Racing right past 'Middlemoor' Police HQ... :twisted:

Nice to meet a lot of you 'Newbies'... Hope you had fun... :wink:

Saw you, ya bunch of hooligans :roll: :lol: as I was turning into Tesco's for petrol between tip and home - Sons Tae Kwon Do and catching up with DIY kept me from playing today :cry:

Glad you all had a good day :D

I had an accident on the way to the services, but the kind police man showed me the error of my ways.

Great ride out and brilliant company.

When can we get the Tassles for stu or shall we transfer Gav's moustache onto it when Kelly tells him to take it off because it doesn't 'tickle her pickle' :D

Well you guy's took my ride out cherry and i loved every minute of it.

The slow ride down was great to settle in and then got stuck in to trying to keep up with the guys (and girl) on the way back to Bridge, managed to do it too (well most of it lol) then dropped back onto the M5 back to Bristol.

Got back at 3pm shattered but looking forward to the next one!!!!!!!
