Morrisons petrol Tiverton 10.45 for 11.00

I need to be back no later that 14.00 so no extended brekkie stop on this one.
I'll be on the tiddler

Sounds good.
Me
Steve and Nathan (who are on our Wales trip).

Yup, should make this one.

Won't be on the tiddler cos it's number plate got crunched when the suspenders bottomed out today ....so you'll have to put up with the old Busa

what is this tiddler you speak of?

I could be bribed to tell but Herr P would remove my privileges i.e access to Janes fruitcake .

I might be persuaded to spill the beans for a large donation naaa
Nice bike though Brian shame about the plate
Monday is a possibility depends on brownie points accured

Sounds like a reasonable time to start on a bank holiday. If the weather's ok and no fords are involved, I'll be down.

Newbie incoming…

Sounds good, see you all there

Long time lurker, me and my mate are free if we could pop along.
No offence given but is this the type of ride like loonies and crazy overtakes sort of thing? I’ve taken a a break from riding for 2 years so not comfortable/confident riding crazy speeds with risky business

Not going on this ride, but no, they aren't crazy, but usually safe overtaking and filtering is expected.

Nothing crazy in the group riding, normally. Very progressive, so if there's a safe overtake on then they'll be taking it. Buy even if you're not as confident, you won't get left behind, as the drop off system ensures there's always someone looking out for you. Best way to improve is to ride with others

Group rides seem to run a different paces depending on the riders in that group, road conditions and traffic.
I think this one will be quite easy going so it'd be a good taster ride for you.
Just give it go, if it's not for you then just let the TEC know (tail end charlie) or run leader if there's no TEC and then peel off.

Always ride your own pace and within your own ability.

Don't know if they're running a tail end charlie or not but if you get separated by traffic just plod along and junctions should have a rider waiting.

Ideal thank you, I only ask as I’ve ridden with people in the past and I’ll just say that most try an imitate moto gp
