Bloody hell Badger, I'd better bring my trail bike for that part ;)

i m not that familiar with the Marazion - Redruth section, nor the very last loop from Indian Queens to Victoria, but the rest is relatively flowing roads (for Cornwall )?

think Graham might be referring to either Praze to Four Lanes or the section through St. Wenns to Victoria, both a bit narrow and wind-y in places but fun none the less, using those sections to by pass the various sections that are being Top Dressed at the moment. As is usual for Cornwall Council, do their road works during the summer when the roads are busy

Can I just draw everyones attention to this:

Please read the bit about Run to the Bun if you've not been on one before

If you don't understand the drop off junction marking system please ask Smiler, KwakRider or myself at the meeting points.

Weather is still forecast as being sunshine and showers in Cornwall, will be keeping an eye on it for the rest of the week.

Used corner drop off system many times. It's the safest and best way to keep a group together and moving along without the leader panicking about the tail end.

Don't forget, if they are running a little late, don't leave the meeting point at that time. Just sit and wait please.

You'll hear the rumble of hungry bikers soon enough.

Don't know where you've been looking, but so far the beeb (both on telly & the net) are forecasting rain throughout the west country all day Sunday .....

[billinom8s]

Stop wishing wetness on the run and forum Moose.

Think happy thoughts like fluffy clouds, Blue skies and warm weather.

I was referring to the farm track from Marizion to Nine Maidens (Four Lanes).

Wonder who showed you the St Wenn road in the first place ;) - either end of that is quite fun but you're probably better doing that bit from Winnards Perch Roundabout rather than through St Columb.

Hoping to catch up with you at Penzance, what sort of time is Breakfast?

The B3297 is alright, its the bit from Praze that can get a bit narrow, weather depending, e.g. if wet, I might turn right at Praze and go to Helston then back on the Redruth road.

I knew that St. Wenn road before you showed it to me, I recorded an album in St. Wenn back in 2001 or so, prior to that used to use it as a rat run if travelling up to Exeter in the summer before they put in the new A30. Just had'nt used it for a bike run, only in a car before. ;)

Penzance for Brekky hopefully by 7.30 ish Leaving shortly after 8.30 latest! Come along and I'll buy you a bacon sarnie ......now that's made it more tempting eh ;)

[AshM750]
