If the forecast remains poor past 1 o clock I'll cut the second half of the ride and come back from Watchet via B3188 to Wiveliscombe back to Wellington.

See how it goes weather wise, might be ok ;-)

Might not be relevant now.... usually I'd recommend not doing the A39 Minehead - Bridgewater, effin nightmare with 40 and 50 speed limits everywhere. On the other hand the alternative routes may well be best avoided for road conditions at this time of year.

Thanks Phil for organising this and the 'interesting' route! Good turn out.
Suspected parts of it were satnav assisted and knew for sure as we headed down the single track lane with green stuff down the middle :))

And motorcycle limbo was a first for me! :80: :)):
Wish I'd had my phone on the bar mount, would have stopped for a photo.

Sounds like it was as per usual for an SWB ride out with "interesting" sections. I'm sure I would have liked it but the snots, which I probably got on the last ride out, kept me home.
