Everyone is welcome matey, just come along.

I aint the fasted rider in the world so dont worry.

Your best bet is to take the A377 from Exeter towards Barnstaple, but at Morchard Bishop Turn left on the B3220 towards Torrington. You will come into Torrington and the 1st thing you come to is a roundabout, (with a petrol station on your right) Turn Left, follow the road right through the village and once you are out the otherside and just as you start going down hill, the common and burger van are on the right, it looks like a small cross roads.

I have attached a map below and hope this helps

Paul, that wasnt by any chance just by the turn off right into Okhampton by any chance where that range rover was waiting to come out and you overtook that car ?? Umm if it was, I went bloody airbourne there :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Andy was great to meet up with you again matey, shame we didnt get our cuppa at your place and hope you made it to Black Cat in time.

Was a great day with great company oh and cracking weather.

Bolt, ya did good for a first ride out, remember we are mostly old farts who have been riding for years and some ride everyday to and from work. Like paul said, your riding will improve no end the more you ride.

Cheers Chaps and chapass's :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
