Great Dave
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.

Sorry, can't make the full rideout. Will aim to meet you at Bridge around 2.00-ish instead.

Guess that's about when we'll get there after a couple of coffee stops en route. See you at Bridge pal

After lots of fettling I had the bike looking like it was straight out of the showroom. Now it doesn't

but well worth it, what's the problem with several hours of cleaning now needed
I've a couple of pics of the strange phenomenon of a bike under a blue sky in Devon in 2026 - will post tomerrow...

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.
