Dolton Bike Fest - Sat 3rd May

Post by ptolemyx »

Anyone fancy a ride out to visit the Dolton Bike fest on Saturday 3rd May?

CHANGE OF START POINT AND TIME - see alteration below:-
Tiverton Morrisons
Be ready to leave, fully fuelled at 10.45

Pace will be "not crawling but also not haring about like lunatics." If numbers dictate drop off and tec system will be used.

Stop for coffee etc at Gemmas at Waytown (just south of Combe Martin) - about 3/4 hour there.
After 96 miles get to Dolton about 14.00

When we've had a gander there we'll ride on to finish at cafe Earth or Bridge motorcycles.

Looks like there might be a few drops but hopefully not enough for me to cancel. Anyone else interested???

I'm certainly tempted but will wait to see what the weather looks like it's doing.
Do you think they'd consider moving the event back to Sunday? :)):

This weather is crazy though, a few weeks ago it was cold and/or wet, then we get a lovely week, and today it's got too hot.

Saturday's not looking too good weather-wise so they might reschedule it - as might Herr Ptolemyx his rideout. We shall see.

The sun is set to shine all day so the Ptolemyx prayer mat has obviously worked. I'll be there.
