early-ish rideout - 7/5/23

Post by billinom8s »

Weather permitting, leaving Bridge Motorcycles in Exeter.

0600


This will be my first rideout since my op in Feb, so don't expect anything TT like, just an easy run on empty roads for a couple of hours (or less if I can't make it.)

I could be up for this.....but only if, on the day, my body can let me do a 05.00 start to meet you at Bridge......and if I have a number plate fitted on the tiddler :roll:

Early = empty roads.

Make sure you're fuelled up and ready to go by 0555.

If anyone wants to extend the ride after Simon's finish I'm happy make it a longer morning on the bikes.

Hey Si wasn’t going to do this one as the weather was looking terrible however all now changed and looks great and no rain so count me in and see you in the morning. I need to be home sooner rather then later so a short ride works for me
