Re: SAT 14TH FEB

Look in here for local ride outs...

Moderator: Staff

Forum rules
You are of course welcome along to any Southwestbikers rideout, however your bike must be in good mechanical order (we don’t want anything falling off of it including you), taxed and have a current MOT. 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. Always ride within your own capabilities and do not put others at risk. Remember, while you are on a Southwestbikers rideout you are representing the site and what it stands for.
Thank-you.

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

Great Dave :-bd
If you're interested I've tweaked the Google map to show the actual route, A38 from the start (not the motorway) and B3224 from Bish Lydeard to Elworthy Cross where we turn right for Washford.

After lots of fettling I had the bike looking like it was straight out of the showroom. Now it doesn't :evil: but well worth it, what's the problem with several hours of cleaning now needed :mrgreen:

That's just a weird scenario to try and convince us all actually exists. Next you'll be talking of yeti and the loch ness monster.
