Well I'm heading down for 8:30 to have breakfast and to see who turns up as its not raining outside atm

blo0dy weather, its p1ssing it down here, the almighty met office said taunton is due rain throughout mornin and were headed in that direction! Im gonna skip but have a good one, enjoy your mcmuffins says mclovin

Not raining here at the moment but it has been so i'm guesing the minehead road will be slippy as fook so i will be at McDonalds in about 15 minutes to see who turns up and to see what everyone wants to do.
If you have a way to come for this only you can decide if you want to ride in the wet ( i know what Si will say )

See you shortly
Colin

i will be staying in bed.
has ben raining here and is forecast to rain on and off most of the day.
good luck to the brave souls that turn up.

I got as far as the huntworth roundabout in Bridgewater to meet up with you guys at 0730. Waited for 20 or so mins and headed back home.

If its a reschedual (?) (whatever ), then I might have the funds to come along ! Otherwise for those that go have a good ride!

And as for Exeter Pub Meet I'm going to try and get a carload together for the next one ( unless its a wednesday cos I'v got my kids on wed eves).

Hey everyone

This week has been a load of firsts for me and riding in the rain isnt one that i wish to do just yet. If the rideouts postponed for brighter weather then i will keep my sundays free for the next few weeks in hope for some sun.

Hope the few that turned up had a good time.

Just got back via the moors

Excellent ride as usual

Must of been a good ride! I've been moist all day

good day out pity about the weather but good company as always cheers

Glad those that braved the weather this morning had a good ride and i hope everyone got home safely

Hope to arrange another ride out when hopefully i will have a bike and the weather will be better

A good ride despite the weather, which could have be a lot worse, folks generally being cautious on the wet stuff, and mad as usual on the intermittent dry bits. We didn't do the 'Summer Rideout' route up to Minehead, so I think we should do that some time soon. Good to see some new faces & thanks for organising it Colin.

well, yes i did turn up and rode in the wet, infact did the whole revised route through the rain, hail, thunder and brimstone (just like bambam predicted)

good comapny as usual, 2 groups instead of 5 but i think they were pretty fair paced groups. group one had an easy run and good pace where as the number 2's spoke to mr sulu and engaged warp drive

did the traditional westbay run and came back via the awesome (and mostly dry) yarcombe road - a new fave for cheese monkey and frag i think.

a good day, iffy weather, top company and lovely coffee


cheers coln

Thanks all, had a really good day despite the wet! Nice to see some new faces too

Lottie literally cried buckets with joy on getting home lol....
