No probs, Can meet you in Honiton as you ride through but cant be before 8am as the greandparents are coming up to sit with the kids cos I messed up childcare Let me know what time / where?

it looks like about 15minute ride away, so i'll give some leeway & shoot the pooh for awhile in Honiton say 0815ish.

i'll park on the main High street (A35) just past the New street turn off. stretch me legs abit.

Great, see you both then.

No Probs, see you then.

Silly question I take it that there is going to be fuel stops on this . The firestorm wont even do 100 miles on a tank full with me riding it let alone 200

Ditto, i can muster 120 on the main & 20 more when i switch to reserve.

I guess when we meet up & split into our groups we can agree on say 2-3(?) refuel stops.

Gawd aren,t you lucky. if i thrash my old RD,s i only get about 70 miles before they run on reserve, 80/90 if i take it easy, the honda 650 single is not much better but only has a small tank

i think they should be a couple of fuel stops along the way

The weather doesn't look that good for Sunday.

Will there be a summer ride out in the rain? To be honest riding in the rain is not fun and something I would not do!

Makes it more fun mate,surely ?

It is not the bike rotting away but the travelling to get to the rideout!

I am in Oxford at the moment and I was going to come down for the rideout as I haven't met a lot of the guys here before. It is a long journey to come down for a rideout that maybe in the wet. Unless the forecast looks good by friday morning for sunday then I have to pull the plug on the rideout.
