Hey guys.
Just wondering if anyone fancies joining AndyCBR and me tomorrow morning for a ride? Probably start around 8-9am and get back to Exeter area around 1 or so, taking in some twisties and a coffee stop somewhere... :P

Anyone interested?

I'm in! But would need to get back to Exeter a bit earlier.

I've logged on to see if anyone is up for an early one to Westbay in the morning. I was thinking of an 8am meet-up at Bridge, back again for 11.

Where are you thinking of going? Maybe I could just split and head home earlier...?

Westbay is fine. 8 or earlier is a fine start time as any later and the traffic starts to increase anyway.
Maybe aim for a 7.30 meet and leave between then and 8 depending on attendance...?
I'll check Andy's Ok with it but don't imagine it'll be a problem (late start for us!)

Also as far as start point is concerned Bridge is fine or Exeter Sevices is pretty good if were going to Westbay...
I'm not fussed either way as Bridge is about 2 mins from my house!!
Whatever suits everyone best is cool by me... 8)

OK Dan, 0730 at Bridge. Which is also two minutes from me! I see you're on an SV650S, me also!

Look forward to seeing you in the morning. Cheers!

:roll: Good point.

How long does it take to get to Westbay? I've only done it once, with Pedro, AndyCBR and GixerDrew. Their pace made it feel like ten minutes! It must be a good 45 mins though?

Perhaps a longer route? Old A30 to Honiton - back road to Lyme Regis - Westbay? I dunno. Suggestions on a postcard... :?
