Be ready to get going when we get to Wrangway as we won't be stopping, just slowing for you to join.

Depart from start 10.15
Slow down for Andy and John at Wrangway 10.20-10.25
Slow down for Richard at Forton 10.50 ish

Not totally uneventful. I had a pheasant/ZH2 interface on the way to the start where we noticed my radiator was then leaking so I popped back home for the Busa and caught up with the gang at Duck's Farm Cafe. Now that's a good place so it's now in the black book of SWB pit stops, as is The Steamer where we finished the ride.

Apologies to all for the dreadful traffic on the road from Abbotsbury to the West Bay/A35 roundabout :roll:

Seems like the new guys had a good time 'cos they're both up for more ride outs with us, even if Sergui apparently lost his footing when junction marking - hope the NC750XD isn't badly damaged.

Big thanks to all who joined in the fun :-bd

Yup, lovely day for a ride out and nice to meet some new members as well as ones we don't normally see out east.
Many thanks to Brian to organizing and Phil for stepping in to lead when Brian felt the need to change bikes, and then for TEC duties for the rest of the day.

Looking forward to next one (as long as the sun is out) 8) .
