Possible ride next Sat 16th
If the weather forecast is to be believed then it's getting warmer and drier by next weekend. If my heated gear comes back from Gerbing by then I'm going out even if it's only for a few hours. Wife's away in Norway and have no dog to look after so can please myself. If I'm leading it won't be balls out speed as I'll be a bit rusty and the roads will probably still be covered in crap.
I'll post again nearer the weekend and see if anyone else fancies it. I'll probably head to Bridge and start it from there.

Don't care who you are, how much you have, how powerful you are. You still sit on the toilet with your pants around your ankles. Yep, it's a level playing field..

Re: Possible ride next Sat 17th
Probably the Saturday. Would like to drop into S & P on Marsh Barton to book the bike in for a service and sort out a demo bike and they're closed on Sunday.
I won't have my trusted satnav as the wife will have it in the car as she's off to Heathrow and gets lost going to sainsburys. Probably north Devon or Somerset

Also what time are you setting off and where are you meeting up?
Hope you don't mind but changed the name of this thread to "Sat 16th" as the 17th is the Sunday so people might turn up on the wrong day

Re: Possible ride next Sat 16th
Yeah, I should have known the dates.........seeing as the 17th is my wife's birthday
Probably be at Bridge/S&P around 10am. I've had some discount via the membership card already (£57 for a clutch lever!!) so will hopefully get a good deal on a service as it's their quiet time. Really looking forward to having a blast on their 790 Duke demo bike that they're giving me while mine's being worked over.
All welcome - it'll be a laid back affair as I haven't ridden any distance for 3 or 4 months and am a bit rusty.
Well......that's the theory......and will probably last all of 2 miles before I get into courier mode

Re: Possible ride next Sat 16th
Right then. Courier delivered my heated gear back (new gloves, jacket connectors all under warranty ) so this is definitely on. Ready to leave S & P at 10am. I have no fixed idea where we're going but will be out for a good few hours. Need to think about a lunch stop that'll cater for my strange diet, so any pointers would be useful.
Who's coming then?

Re: Possible ride next Sat 16th
That's gonna be tricky then as roadkill is the most popular meal round that way.
Try double locks Pub near marsh barton. Or take a bimble along the stoke Canon road to sampford Peverall and visit The Globe - top roadkill there.

Re: Possible ride next Sat 16th
Cheers for the tip re the Globe - not tried that one. If we're setting off at 10am I reckon we'd be at the Double Locks by 5 past....... Not the longest ride I've ever done.
Was thinking of somewhere on the North Somerset /Devon coast
