Anyone up for a few hours ride on Sat Morning? Perhaps a 9ish start, RV somewhere in Torbay / Newton area and a stop off for an early brunch? :D

I'm only a novice but fancy a bit of a short ride out to loose the cherry.

Well if anyone is up for it for a couple of hours - would love to do longer but the ball and chain might complain a tad too much!

Well - A easy place to meet me would be Sainsbury's at the Pen Inn Roundabout or even at Trago, just off the A38.

There are a couple of good cafe's in the area if the weather is good'ish.
