Well done and thanks to all you chaps and the lone (but lovely :mrgreen: ) chap-ess for turning out today for what was a great fun rideout. The sun gods smiled on us and the road gods supplied a mostly traffic free mix of roads - out in the sticks anyway :) . A special thanks must go to the long-suffering Andy Ming for much needed and well executed TEC duties - may your future battles with tractors be few and far between . . . . . .and just as successful as today's :) .
Nine of us started out from Wellington and we were joined at the Winkleigh lunch stop by Kata John.
Today's protagonists were Roy, Wendy, Phil, Richard, Andy, John, Alan, Brian, Rick and me. A pic' to prove it posted in the Rideout Photo's section.
Here's to the next one :-bd .

Cheers Phil. Cracking route, apart from the giant potholes in places ๐Ÿ˜ณ
Bit scary going off the side of the road when the tractor I was overtaking moved across the lane but probably my fault for trying to follow Roy the Rocket past. He obviously didn't want me to get by as well but going grass tracking at 30mph wasn't great for the heart rate ๐Ÿ™„

Thanks for ride out Phil, and to Ming for herding us and risking person injury.
The potholes were special on some of those roads too.
Special thanks to Roy for bailing out my ass after I turned up without any money or means of paying for fuel! :shock: #-o

I've put another piccy in the photo section.

Cheers. :D

Fab route Phil. Been on some roads I've never had the pleasure of using before. Great to see you all.
