Sunday Classic bike ride out

Probably not for anyone on here, but there's a ride out on the 19th (Sunday) from Exeter Quay at 10am.
Meeting members of the VMCC at Jones's in Winkleigh at 11am, and going up to Lynton and Lynmouth, valley of the rocks etc.
Most will be on modern ish bikes but I can't see any of them trying to get their knee down, so if you fancy a bimble, leave your Marquez fantasies behind 🙄

I'm posting it up in case there's any new members or lurkers that fancy a ride without going balls out, but have someone experienced organise and lead it (not me 👀)

I thought you were old enough to be a classic now? :)):

Don't go "balls out" on my rides. Make progress, yes.👍

Well, there were 20 bikes in all, everything from a 50's BSA to a new Hornet, and plenty of nice bikes in between. Making progress isn't something the rider on the 350 Royal Enfield was up for, but apart from him it was a decent pace. Mind you, the ride back to Torquay from Minehead when I realised I was late for an appointment was a bit more SWB-like
