Anyone up for it? If so, how about we meet at the top of the car park @ Exeter M5 Services at 10.00 a.m. for a 10.30 kick off? Or a different place & time?
I've got no pre-planned route, we could decide on the day. I'm happy to put my two-penny worth in but if you've got a favourite in mind, bring it along for discussion, just make sure the first stop's a coffee and nosh one!.
The weather's looking good, cold-ish but dry all day.

Could do the route I planned starting at Tiverton, or save it for another day and just meet wherever and chase the blue bits in the sky

That's almost identical to a friendly ride that was done a few years ago. I would avoid the 377 ATM though as it's falling apart and there's Roadworks from what I have been told.
Try going from barnstaple into torrington then down through to morchard bishop.

Meet at Tiverton Morrisons leaving 10.00, ride (anticlockwise on the Google map) should take about 4 hours, if we only stop for fuel, or shorten it and have a cakes and coffee stop
See y'all at the Globe to discuss

Cheers for a great ride out, probably my best day on the bike so far. Great weather, fantastic roads (some more suited to the GS than others!) and a friendly bunch of people. Shame I didn't get round to taking any photos, will have to do better next time

I thought the detour around Dulverton was "interesting". Surprising how well the Busa copes as a "trail" bike
Roll on the next ride in warmer weather, or I'll have to turn wimp and get heated grips/gloves

Yup, a good day out was had enjoying Devon and Somerset's finest
. Sorry Officer, not you, I meant roads and scenery! Thanks to Mr P for (most) of the route and for staying on the Bus (most) of the time
! Great to meet up again with Richard on his well-peddled BMW GS, and to meet Paul on the very smart ZX10-R - first time out with SWB I believe. Here's the only pic' I took, four unattended bikes pining for their owners. I found them in the main car park in Lynmouth.
