Could the route be done so we end up at the sea side/ beach where we could enjoy fish and chips and a cold drink obviously weather permitting just a thought

I hear that Teignmouth is a nice sea side town. With several Fish and Chip shops and lots and lots of places to buy beer.

Looks like there are a couple of options for that date.
Anyone know of any other events that might be interesting to visit?

I thought the point of a bike ride is to keep away from Towns and traffic?

How about the back roads to Exeter, Tiverton, Taunton, Minehead etc?

Also, meeting super early is better than meeting when every other [bar steward] wakes up.

If you don't get pissed the night before, meet at 7am, home by 11am.

Because I am a sad w@nker, I get up and meet friends at 5:30am Sunday morning and generally get home late morning after a cheeky sarnie.

Looking forward to this ride out. Being a Westonion i could probably think of better places to go. Earlier the better.
