The Chief tosspot of the govenrment has been in Cornwall today , was on radio cornwall today , making noises about things that where supposed to sound like he was gonna do summat , but carefully sidestepping and avoiding straight answers, like befoe the election he promised to sort money for the stadium for cornwall , then afterwards not him but his minions turn around and say no sorry you are not getting [censored] all,

All good and more the merrier is the answer to the above posts :D :D

Forecast is questionable at the moment, but after last Sunday, I;m choosing to ignore any forecasts until the evening before or even early Sunday morning. They forecast rain all day last Sunday and it was a lovely sunny day all day :-o !

Right I've checked the weather forecast and as long as we head South from Chivvy we should be dry ( ish !). They are showing the odd shower from 10am till 11pm, but until about 2pm its showing dry if overcast!

So as far as I'm concerned its STILL ON!

I've got a contingency plan in mind any way, if the weather closes in and it gets crappy, we'll just find the nearest cafe, grab a coffee and bun, then decide on a course of action!

Take a note of my mobile no. please, if you decide your not up for it either post here before 9am Sunday or just give me a text. I will be leaving at 10 am from Costa unless you contact me to say you're definately coming but running late etc. We only have a small window of dryish ride time and I don't want to waste it.

Rider list so far:
CornishGreig +1
Matt Greaves?
Mrs Buggs
DaiLaughing
Charlie Chan?
Breva750
Mandolin

Can you please confirm or deny at least initially by end of day today so I know who to expect.

Thanks everybody, I'll do my best to make it an enjoyable couple of hours between the crappy Summer Weather :-bd .
