For those of you heading off back to North Devon and Cornwall we shall make a small comfort stop approx 4pm at Whiddon Down Servces Image from where I expect you may exit the group and head in your respective directions.

The ride will terminate back in Exeter at Marsh Barton McDonalds.

Well weather reports everywhere are saying a shitty weekend and next week also!!! If thats the case I wont be joining you guys this Sunday :evil: I only ride in reasonable weather, its only a hobby for me so want to enjoy it when im out, not get soaked and dodge puddles etc etc. But saying that, for those of you who venture out have a nice day!!

even more shitty news, May has also been forecast as a wash out but good news is a blistering hot summer has been predicted!!! at bloody last

I might actually cry... First day off in two weeks on Sunday... :cry:

And I'm supposed to have my first day's DAS training on Monday too. Didn't realise learning to ride through a flood was part of Mod 1 :-s

Will see what the weather brings, as have missed out on some serious kayaking... my paddling mates have been rubbing my nose in it.At least if i'm not out riding in it, I'll be out in it making the most of the monsoons.
Though Full monty breakfast is always a tempter.

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..

I'm afraid the forecast for tomorrow is now fairly concrete and the predictions are for heavy rain. Given this is is unfortunately prudent to advise tomorrows rideout is almost certainly going to be cancelled.

I'll make a final decision after the next forecast at 6pm but I dont expect this to change.

If there is any chance of going out somewhere later tommorow I will post up.

Does this mean you'll have to re-do your tea and cake survey too? :-bd
