Sorry Phil I'm out....route/destinations all a bit southerly for me at the moment and the weather forecast looks a bit dreary.
Hopefully see you soon though.
Cheers

Folks, the weather is now looking decidedly dodgy for Sunday and if tonight's forecast confirms it then It's off :cry: . BUT - the forecast looks much better for Saturday - https://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2649808 :) . So I'll probably be changing it to then. Check out this topic tomorrow after 2:00 p.m. for confirmation.

Bugger. Wife's working Saturday and I can't leave the dog for too long. If it goes ahead on Saturday I may have to peel off midway.

I know you can't change the weather, but neither of us can do Saturday as we're working.😩

Makes no difference to us both working again. That's garden centres for you.😬

Bear in mind that whatever day you choose, I'd avoid meeting everyone at the services at J30. The road onto Sowton Trading Estate runs off that roundabout and there's roadworks which are causing havoc, backing traffic back onto the M5. Maybe use Marsh Barton or Westpoint depending on which direction you're heading

Ta for the heads up there Andy, I haven't been to the Sowton area for a while and wasn't aware. I'll be choosing somewhere else then :D , details here later.

Post by Robbo87 »

Okay folks, due to potential wetness on Sunday and the fact that the brekky cafe is closed on Monday, this rideout is now tomorrow, Saturday 30th.

NEW LEAVING POINT: Ide Village Road, Just off the westbound A30, Alphington junction. There's no postcode so copy and paste this into Google maps or your satnav: 50.700707, - 3.546391 Google Maps link: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/50% ... d-3.546391

NEW DEPART TIME - 09:30 prompt so please be fuelled up and ready to go. The rest of the ride is as posted previously.

There's a Sainsburys filling station fairly near - EX2 8NH : https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Sai ... -3.5379776

Excellent! Although, depending on numbers, SWB herding may not be required :mrgreen: . I've p.m'd you the route just anyway, just in case.

See folks tomorrow then :) .
