You must have a valid motorcycle licence and current motor insurance. You are in charge of your motorcycle at all times and SWB will not accept any responsibility for actions you take or any accidents you may have. Always ride within your own capabilities and do not put others at risk. Remember, while you are on a Southwestbikers rideout you are representing the site and what it stands for.
Thank-you.
Don't forget......ANYONE can organise and run a rideout.

When it comes to porlock hill there are two routes.
Route 1, straight up the hill and round the bend.
route 2, take the scenic route up, it's not steep but will cost you a toll of £1.50
There is a point at the top where the two routes meet and we can carry on as normal.
I will lead those that want to take route 2.

Hopefully we'll be ok weather wise - the Met Office were predicting heavy rain but now they have changed that to "showers". Fingers crossed hey! Roll on Sunday morning, am looking forward to this one!
Weather reports are absoutley shite for the next 7 days and so far this week they have been spot on!!! Not looking good but who knows, maybe the sun will come out to play as last year was a bliniding day and this has got to be one of the highlights of the years rides!! I will be at macdonalds at 7 am stuffing my face hopefully so come on in and join me those who are leaving from newton!! I would think that we will be leaving at 815 to meet up with Si at ashcombe for around 825 like last time!?
Hi Simon, do you have a guesstamate on how long you are planning on taking for the day? Someone has gone sick so have to Sat and Sun evenings now so may have to peel off early if that's ok?

I had a chat about timings with Simon last night, and the consensus was people should be back in Exeter somewhere betweem 14.00 and 15.00 (ish) dependant on weather, progress and stopping times
Of all the things I have ever lost, I miss my mind the most .....
Handle stressful situations like a dog - If you can't eat it or play with it, pee on it and walk away
