it's 151 miles but don't panic as that's to be done over the entire day and a very relaxed pace.

On the day Mark will be looking for junction markers but if you want to put your name forward i'm sure either him or smiler will explain the requirements of the day and what is expected of you.

Unless you hear otherwise on here from either myself or Mark (kawasakiracer) you will be LEAVING Tiverton McDonalds car park at 0930.

PLEASE BE FULLY FUELLED, REFRESHED, DRAINED AND READY BY THIS TIME.
Is this leaving at 09.30 or at 10.00 as said in an earlier post??

Google maps gives the route time as 4 n half hours, plus drinks / fag / piss breaks.
If you don't ask, you don't get !

There is no rule to say you have to start at the start, and finish at the finish. If you can only make part of the ride thats fine, but advise the ride leader that you will be leaving early, and also make sure you let the TEC know when you leave, so he isn't sat at a junction waiting for you ........
Of all the things I have ever lost, I miss my mind the most .....

Just managed to talk myself out of it. My very first ride-out ever was your last 'friendly' ride. That led me into finding other groups and going out with them. My first drop-off was scary. Since then I've planned and led out several rides, and I'm now taking a few on a Cotswolds run on Sunday.
Very nearly came with you but it would be nearly 300 miles for me and a long day for a decrepit. i-) i-)
Have a great day folks.
Have you noticed that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster is a maniac ?
