ok, so here is the route.

https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?saddr=Un ... 14,18&z=10" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

As usual we will be leaving McDonalds in Tiverton at 10am, please make sure you are already fuelled up and ready to go by this time.

I will be looking for a TEC and depending on numbers, will be looking for some junction markers.

Don't forget, this isn't a heads down, arse up blast, it's a social. with the fact that the days will be getting short light wise the route is only 86 miles but it will be fun - i hope.


right then, see you there.

mines a tea, white, no sugar thanks :)):

It all depends on how many turn up, if they all want to take part etc.

Drop off only works when every rider does the job. Some don't like to or feel comfortable doing it. At that point it all breaks down and we loose people.

See what happens on the day.

If I can get everyone up and out of bed in time I'll try and get to Maccy' D's with the car. I can''t join the ride because we're at my Dad's for a family get together, but being in Cullompton its just down the road from the start :D .

Nostalgia has got the better of me so I'm hoping to get down there for this. Happy to JM if needed.
Have you noticed that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster is a maniac ?

right then, just looked through the route, i didn't find if there were any roads closed, flooded or had mudslides on them so we will find what we will find tomorrow.

if you are going to be there and have ordered a t-shirt/hoodie can you let me know and i'll bring it along.
