A great ride. First of many this year I'm sure. Cheers Simon. And thanks to all the JMs. A lot of bikes and quite a few cars to split us up but everything went like clockwork.

Hi all,

Home now, again, just got in from the walkabout and watching the motopg - fun way to end a top, if not painful day.

Big thanks to the junction markers and TEC, nobody got lost that we didn't want lost.

A really good show of faces and bikes at Caras Diner, no doubt we will use it again even though it was a little chilly out there.

A steady run down to Westbay so that we could bring the place to life, it was a little quiet there before we turned up wasn't it?

Nice run to Weymouth and then through to wave at the giant whilst avoiding dirt tracks left by farmers.

Hope you get your rad fixed Jer.

Yeovil is Yeovil, home of roadworks and wandering goats.

Monatacute does not appreciate Gixxer 600 riders.

Bimble to the pub, chat, coffee and run home all in one piece.

Thanks to all for turning up helping the day run smoothly and supporting me in my rehab run and i try to remember what i'm supposed to be doing on two wheels.

Now pass me the ice pack and oxynorm, it's time to let the pain flooooooooooooooooow.

Thanks everyone, especially Simon and JM's, I had a great (but chilly) "first ever" ride out with Southwest Bikers! Thank you for making me feel so welcome. Had a nice a chat with Chittled and Goatpants and two lads from Lynton at West Bay over coffee (how very civilised). Sorry I bailed out at Cricket St Thomas, I'll hopefully see the next one out (if it's warmer).

If you need a volunteer for TEC, I'm always happy to help. The Chennai Flyer might be suited to that!!
