hi there and congrats on the test.

Don't need to post a definate just turn up. There is a group leaving from bottom of babylon hill to come downm to tivvy, why not come down with them ?

If you haven't been riding long then it's a really useful run to get you relaxed with other bikes plus will help you with lines and riding/road positioning

Well, I said sorry to the chap on the SV for what turned out to be a rather closer than anticipated passing manouvre on the Bickleigh road (that Civic was moving a bit quicker than expected :oops: ), and I hope the nice young lady on the other SV had a good day after her clutch cable woes in Crediton :wink:
