Great to see so many of you today! I really wasn't expecting quite so many (I'd have given the bike a wash for starters! :oops: )

Love the new bike Kelly, really suits you Mrs :wink: Bambam (YES BAMBAM!) made an appearance, though got horribly confused at the roundabout for Lyme and headed straight on..blimmin train drivers tsk, lol....Great to have some new faces along too! Merryfay and hubby, hope you enjoyed the ride to Westbay and hope you made it home ok (we'll have to go to Glastonbury Bike Night sometime as you're so close :wink: ) Dave fetched the Des out to play, which unbelievably sends sound waves FORWARDS as well as back :shock: 8) 8) 8) and even Red5 managed a GF Pass so the 675 was freed from the confines of his garage for a wee while :wink: Offshore, good fun Mr :wink: oh and a ickle thank you to Podrick for bringing up the rear today :)):

Did a different route back towards Taunton courtesy of Kwakiracer (Jer, we lost you mate I think heading into town?? :( ) :( though I think Marks love of donkeys will have to wait for another day :shock: =))

Hope you all had fun today, its so hard leading a ride that others will enjoy and also one that accommodates people from such a wide area!

ps, met a nice chap today on a Diavel (did I spell that right??) hope you get on and post up, be nice to have you along for future rides....if this lot didn't put you off completely! :)):

Thanks for letting us join the ride & it was nice to meet you all!!

We headed back via Yeovil with a tea stop at the Haynes museum. Have to say I was knackered from such a short ride though. Need to get out more & get bike fit again :roll:

Great to see people. I know I'm crap with names, so sorry to those who I ask and should know. It's not personal, honest.

I had to leave after Axminster I'm afraid. HJope everybody had a good sae ride. certainly sounds like it.
Should be out this weekend, last warm up before Llandow... :-s :-s
It's end of May and I've only been out 4 times now, and neither of those have been decent long rides.

See y'all soon.

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..
