Coffee & Cake Somerset/Dorset Bimble Sunday 10th Jan

Post by Stinker »

Hi all,

OK, gonna organise a rideout for the following route on a date in the not too distant future. It's going to need to be dry tho! :roll: ...cold is ok, but not wet. :shock: If we pick a day and it ain't sensible weather we will move it forward to the next Sunday until we get a dry day.

First preference is SUNDAY 10th JANUARY leaving Wincanton at 9am. The route will be:

Wincanton-Sherborne-Crewkerne-West Bay (Coffee & Cake Stop) - Portland Bill (more coffee & cake :D ), Weymouth-Dorchester-Sherborne-Wincanton.

This will probably be a 4 hour run. Would respectfully suggest that we limit this to 250's upwards.

Don't matter if there is one taker or 20...we will still do it :D

Regards to all and a great new year....looking forward to meeting you guys :lol:

I'll be up for the last 50% of this - West Bay, Portland Bill etc.......... does an ETA at W' Bay around 1000 hrs sound about right Mr S? I'll pass on the details to a couple of shy retiring SWB lurkers I know, you never know, might get 'em out of their post NY torpor i-)
Meanwhile, pm sent re' 6th January pub meet.

Yep Robbo...I think 10am is about right but let's say 10-10.30 just in case.
Fab, so see you at West Bay up at the breakwater car park and/or at the Harbour Lights Fish & Chip van thingy where I guess we can get a cuppa.
So, any more up for a nice easy run?

Don't worry....we'll be behaving so taking it nice 'n easy. There'll be a few roundabouts upon which you can get yer knee down which is compulsory ofc :80:

Seriously :wink: it's not going to a bonkers race through the countryside...rather, a steady amble and we'll make sure all riders are looked after.

More news as it happens. :D
