Friendly Ride - Saturday 1st January 2011

Post by Varcon »

Seeing as the last was quite popular, and im guessing that most people will have New Years Day off, thought id try and organise another of these!

Route will be posted up in about a week.

Meeting place will be the same as last time (MacDonals, Exeter), but a little later start time of 11. Gives people a chance to wake up from the night before. :lol:

Probably about 100-120 miles from the start point - a decent afternoons ride, but not so far that you get a numb bum!

I'v got the kids till 10 am and doubt I can get to Exeter in time. Shame but think its a no show for me. Unless you are heading south then I could pick you up on route?

Yeah tends to be dusky by 4.30, like I said though depending on what way you head I might head up devon direction and could maybe meet and ride for a while then i'll head proper south whilst you all head North :D
