You must have a valid motorcycle licence and current motor insurance. You are in charge of your motorcycle at all times and SWB will not accept any responsibility for actions you take or any accidents you may have.

Thank-you.

Don't forget......ANYONE can organise and run a rideout.

As usual, for this time of year, if the rain gods decide to not play ball this could be cancelled so please check here before coming out to play. If I pull the plug I'll post that decision no later than Wednesday 5.00p.m.

Steve, assuming you're coming up the motorway, be aware that M5 roadworks between junctions 28 and 27 are 50mph - which is policed.

Thanks for leading the ride Brian.

Roads were pretty good considering, and so was the weather. Just 9.5 Deg C at the start but by the end I was seeing 15 on my dash.
Got home and as it's my last ride on that bike for this year, and a service is due I dropped the oil as there's no better time than after a good long ride.
It can stand & drip over night now. :)
