Hi all,
OK, gonna organise a rideout for the following route on a date in the not too distant future. It's going to need to be dry tho!

...cold is ok, but not wet.

If we pick a day and it ain't sensible weather we will move it forward to the next Sunday until we get a dry day.
First preference is SUNDAY 10th JANUARY leaving Wincanton at 9am. The route will be:
Wincanton-Sherborne-Crewkerne-West Bay (Coffee & Cake Stop) - Portland Bill (more coffee & cake

), Weymouth-Dorchester-Sherborne-Wincanton.
This will probably be a 4 hour run. Would respectfully suggest that we limit this to 250's upwards.
Don't matter if there is one taker or 20...we will still do it
Regards to all and a great new year....looking forward to meeting you guys

I'll be up for the last 50% of this - West Bay, Portland Bill etc.......... does an ETA at W' Bay around 1000 hrs sound about right Mr S? I'll pass on the details to a couple of shy retiring SWB lurkers I know, you never know, might get 'em out of their post NY torpor
Meanwhile, pm sent re' 6th January pub meet.

Yep Robbo...I think 10am is about right but let's say 10-10.30 just in case.
Fab, so see you at West Bay up at the breakwater car park and/or at the Harbour Lights Fish & Chip van thingy where I guess we can get a cuppa.
So, any more up for a nice easy run?

Bad news G Girl...sorry we won't see you. Don't forget that this date is not written in stone.... should it be wet then we will push it forward to the next Sunday.

Look forward to meeting you Smiler...we won't go unless it guarantees dry weather. If that date doesn't deliver then will go the next Sunday☺

Don't worry....we'll be behaving so taking it nice 'n easy. There'll be a few roundabouts upon which you can get yer knee down which is compulsory ofc
Seriously

it's not going to a bonkers race through the countryside...rather, a steady amble and we'll make sure all riders are looked after.
More news as it happens.
