Ten SWB-ers took part in today's rideout. Some were the usual suspects, some not so usual but thanks to all for braving the Blackdowns with me, some not for the first time :) . Big thanks to Alan for herding duties aka tec, much appreciated Alan :-bd .
Hope the mystery cafe stop met with approval. For general info' and anyone wishing to visit, it was the Devon & Somerset Gliding Club, North Hill airfield, Sheldon, Honiton EX14 4QW. Bikers always welcome.
Here's nine of the above mentioned vagrants outside said cafe:

Thanks for that, Phil. Cheers to everyone that braved the cold and made it out. Was nice not to need my heated grips today. Will defo be organising something in the next few weeks, probably going east of Exeter. Maybe a full day on a weekend or more likely an evening ride, as after the rush hour the roads are a lot quieter.
