was out for a trundle on tuesday evening with kim (went to minehead, awesome twisties) and on the way back stopped in taunton for a coffee in the layby next to the motorway, only to be greated by about 20 bikes.

turns out they started meeting there on a tuesday eve for the last 3 weeks. there is top food and drink there and no BS other than top speeds and overtaking stories etc.

we stayed for about an hr and were made to feel most welcome.

reckon could be worth a ride up there again, old a30 up and motorway back for ease.

anyone interested?

Im up for it but wont be able to leave to after 7 tho

Yup ... Count me in ...

There's quite a few of the Taunton peeps from on here meet there too ...

Yeah might be up for meeting there next week.

However, a proper Taunton bike meet is not far off for next year ;)

could be fun ......

I was coming back from Minehead at about 7pm. Went over the hills passed Wheddon Cross and down to Porlock. Came back through Minehead and nice to see hardly any traffic on the roads!

I'd be up for meeting on a Tuesday at the truck stop if I'm not working late.

i live about 2 mins from there, but have never been!! how slack! will do next week tho

Thanks billi it was nice to see you i put up a message about this but nobody turned up still maybe see more of you this tuesday

What are the timings for this meet... ?

Do you go for a ride around or just meet at truck stop... ?

Asking 'cause people will turn up at different times and miss out...

So...Anyone going up from Exeter area...? we could meet at services and go up old A30.

perhaps you mean the "old A38"



though, I once drove along a road from just the other side of Honiton up to Taunton (go's past the racecourse ) that looked like it might be interesting on a bike

Have to see what "she who must be obeyed" has planned for this evening before I can commit

Ooops - did I misunderstand did you mean tonight (19th) or next Tuesday (26th)

all the taunton lot will be there tonite!

burgers are good at the truck stop too

I originally wrote A38 Moose old chap and changed it because I saw A30 was what Simon wrote... Note 'Do not self doubt, you are the greatest'

Cheers for the info Delboy...
