What time is the ride out starting on Saturday Mrs S? Might venture over if the weather is favourable for a bimble. We usually stop for Brekkie in the Honey Cafe ( by Bronllys just past the Builth wells turnoff (A470). See you're going past there,and the and the brekkies are good in there ( a bit pricey) and the A479 is a cracking bit of road too.

Nick,

if your able to meet me at Exeter services approx 1pm, I've sort of pencilled in to run upto Sedgemoor ( leaving there by 2pm ), next stop Severn View Services to leave by 3pm....

How does this sit with you please ?

cheers

Cool, sounds like a plan. Going over the old bridge.. is that free like the newer one??
yep, will be set to leave Exeter Services at 1300. Though if not there, just bimble on up and I'll catch up with you en route or at severn view...

Any one else heading up from this neck of the woods or just me and thee?

Hoping the mile munching motorway doesn't square off my tyres too much before Brands Next Wed... hmm.

see who ever turns up at Exeter and Severn View...

Ditto...

...But Smiler I think the weather and lack of horse power are going to make it a no go for me this time. Hopefully I'll make it to another event later in the year when I've got my full licence & a bigger bike :ympray:
