Aren't you leading this ride though Brian? =))
Don't care who you are, how much you have, how powerful you are. You still sit on the toilet with your pants around your ankles. Yep, it's a level playing field..

Thanks for organising this Brian. I'll come up from Cornwall if we get a quorum (whatever that number is).

I'll be there regardless, even if it's just me and you Richard. We'll be making very good progress on the roads but limited by me not being a track god like what Nick is :mrgreen:

Hi Richard. Just in case you're a stranger to the wilds of Tiverton, here's the lowdown on location: Morrisons, Kennedy Way, TIVERTON EX16 6RZ. Hope to see you there. Google maps link: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Mor ... ?entry=ttu

Route along the lines of:-

There will be refreshment stops. Withypool tearoom 99% likely to be open. Quince Honey farm will be avoided as it'll be full of noisy brats. Joneseys is a favourite that'll be open tomorrow from 9.

I've always wanted to stop at Withypool tea rooms but so far haven't.

I'm going to try to make the ride but there's a chance I won't be going anywhere. Been putting in a new fence and then lifted a bike trailer up on its end and now my lower back is telling me about it. :roll:

If I can move tomorrow I'll likely be there..
If I'm not at the start then please don't wait for me as I'm probably still in bed wondering how I'm going get to the toilet. :((

Thanks to Brian for organising and leading today's rideout, an excellent and fun route. Nice to see some of the usual suspects also - even one who never made it past the start, hope you got home o.k. after you got it started John.
Special mention to Richard (Farad) venturing up from Wadebridge, over on the dark side, to join us on his immaculate Suzuki, well it was immaculate at the start :)): .

Thanks for a very enjoyable run Brian, and to Robbo for TEC duties, and all for making it fun ride.
