You must have a valid motorcycle licence and current motor insurance. You are in charge of your motorcycle at all times and SWB will not accept any responsibility for actions you take or any accidents you may have.

I'm willing to offer up to 17p for info prior to next years outing - tax free as well.
Have you noticed that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster is a maniac ?

I should clarify.......MMT great, thanks Simon :D .....and fellow participants that helped make it a fun day (....and Phil...great route from the MMT finish!).

Things went a bit pear shaped at Exeter Services.......engage confession mode......I put diesel in the bike :80: :80: :80: (won't bother with the nozzle colour code explanation.....no excuse!)......fcuking bollocks!
Long story short.....expensive mistake :oops:

Just like to add my thanks to others to Herr W Nom8s for organising a fun day out, and to all the other victims, sorry - riders for their ... er' ... sometimes 'interesting' contribution :shock: - those who were present will know what I mean; we all of course, are sworn to secrecy on the day's details on pain of death, or worse, being named and shamed for being late with our SWB subs :oops: .
Thanks again Si' :ymapplause: .

Yeah, thanks.....a bit late (2 hours plus), very hot.....and even now still hacked off with myself (note to self.....read the fcuking labels and ignore nozzle handle colours!).

Thank you Simon for an interesting day out and the gentle initiative to learn the basics of world class navigation.
We all got there, and everyone was early.

Andy- don't beat yourself up ; it happens to everyone----------------------------------eventually.

Phill of dixiegrass fame. What a spirited ride you produced on the way home.
All in all a fabulous day
