Just in from work #:-s . . . . . bike all prepped and ready for tomorrow :-bd .

Att'n Nick - a reminder that we're meeting Geoff Skinner in Tavvy, he'll be outside the council offices at 0815 hrs, as we discussed. He's got info' on a bikers cafe we need to know about and will take us there if you like. It's known as Louie's and it's just outside Callington at Kit Hill - some of you may know it. It's en route for where you're leading us anyway and will make a great coffee and cake stop - and for future reference too.

Cheers for that, yeah, will give the extra cafe a miss on this one. If it's the one I'm thinking of, it doesn't open until 9 anyway. Aiming for chequered flag for brekkers... But see how we feel.. Will only be a nano ride from Tavi, just got going and time to stop again. :lol:
But can take a ride out there another time for sure :)):

Cheers Nick, thanks for organising and leading this, good wet fun was had by all :) . I particularly liked the Tour de Callington & hunt the Cafe bit, that was novel :mrgreen:. Still, the Chequered Flag was a good alternative :-bd . Maybe we can get an organised ride to Louie's at Kit Hill at another time; it's worth knowing about for those who've never been there.

Thank you all for a great day... Shame about making just the one ferry, have to make it a proper early ride out next time... Learnt that I do know where Louies café is :-bd
Chequered flag was great all the same, amazing rack.... O:-) O:-) Might be heading back sooner than I thought x_x

Great roads, great company and great bikes.

See y'all soon somewhere
