Kyle, Stephen. We try to "make good progress" but all egos are safely left at home. You will be looked after. Just get there 10.45 ish 'cos with a few new to the group I'll be boring y'all with a pre ride blather on how we do our rides.

Morrisons petrol station Tiverton:-

Postcode EX16 6SW

We normally gather in front of the forecourt. It's where you should see some bikes parked up with some fools taking the pee out of each other.

Saying that IF I can get away a bit earlier I'll join Phil the elder for brekkie in their cafe first - before going over to the petrol forecourt for 10.45. I hope we will be leaving, fully fueled, dead on 11.00 as I absolutely must be back no later than 14.00. There'll be a SHORT coffee break, not the usual full brekkie break, on the ride.

What a crowd :D I lost count using the fingers on both feet =:)

I certainly hope the old faces, new faces and the usual suspects had a good un. Big thanks to Nick stepping in to the tec role :-bd and Duncan :-bd for his heroic mopping up of those who had their eyes shut so missed a junction marker :mrgreen:

Sorry I had to leave y'all at Torry, simply had to get back in time to collect the SWB cake maker from her shenanigans. Thanks to Old Phil for stepping in to the oberlieutenant role to get the guys and gals back to Tivvy :-bd

Steve and myself made it back to Chard eventually, after a loop down to Crediton and then back up to Uffculme with Robbo before he then peeled off for home. We didn't find any cafes open so I'm consoling myself with a cold beer instead.

Had a great ride, many thank to Phil for organizing it, Robbo for stepping in at Torrington and Nick for TEC'ing.
Nice to see so many riders turn out and great to see some new faces there too.

Looking forward to the next one.

A good little 16 bike bimble was that.
Big thanks to Brian for calling and leading it to Torrington - you all know who to blame after that. . . . . Ta also to Red 5 Nick for TEC-ing and to Duncan for collecting the strays (sigh!). Great to meet up with 1. The usual suspects 2. The occasional suspects and 3. Some new suspects - hope you enjoyed yourselves folks. Here's to the next one 👍.
