South West Bikers | Motorcycle Forum

Anybody fancy it on Sunday...

Earlyish, 0800 start, from M5 services blat up to Poole for weatherspoons Breakfast then back to Exeter
Route details nearer the time but that's the general idea.

I'm on it if the weather holds out ;)

See you at Dorchester, Tesco, 0900hrs Ash

I'm up for this (weather permitting - looks OK so far). The SDR is fully run-in now and up for action. What's the rough route? I'm near Blandford. Is Dorchester your first stop after Exeter? If so then I could meet you there. Or if you're stopping before Dorch I'll head further west to make a decent run of it but probably won't ride all the way to Exeter just to come back again.

There is a Toby at Poole.

Wasn't planning on stopping before Dorchester. See you there for 0900

Weather looking good. Unless that changes I shall be relaxing in the sunshine on Tesco's forecourt at 9:00.

It'll be nice to have a lie-in on a ride-out day for a change.
Hope to see some of the Devon and Cornwall contingent venturing out east.

Worth mentioning that there is a big biker bash in the middle of Salisbury on Sunday - they are closing the middle of the city off for everything other than bikes. http://salisbury.mag-uk.org/showpage.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; so might be worth a small detour?

fat chance of them doing that down here

If you made it 'Breakfast in Pool- Camborne' I'd be well up for that ;)

Poole -Dorset on the other hand is a bit far for me to get there and back ready to get to work for 10.30 ish

They close Poole Quay to everything except bike.... And then charge bikes £1 to get in. Robbing b'stards.

Heard from others, if you are not there early, no chance.

How many we got then, enough for a list?
