Okay, but I'll be at Wetherspoons at 0930 hrs for breakfast, as per' my post. The rideout STARTS at 1030 hrs.

Have a good 'un. Two rides missed this weekend

Well that was an 'interesting' rideout - in a coupla ways eh Roy?
We covered around 120 miles. For info' the route was roughly Tivvy (brekky), Bickleigh, Crediton, Winkleigh, Moretonhampstead, Exeter and home to Ottery and Chard.
The weather was dry, so were the roads, and 'twer a tad chilly in places - as was the 'spoons brekky, which caused (we both think), the 'interesting' bit of the ride to happen later. All well in the end and thanks to Roy for tagging along and keeping me entertained .

Something like that, possibly, maybe. We can't be certain 'spoons was the source, but probably. Strangely, I wasn't affected even though we both ate and drank exactly the same things. The symptoms hit about an hour after we left Tivvy and got a bit worrying for a while; they eventually eased up enough for Roy to ride home and when I checked later, things were much improved and all is now good I believe.
