Do you want the ride this time to finish at the same destination as the Devon Air Ambulance Ride ?

ello you lot of strangers!!

I've had a bad few months - my poor baby got beat up (written off) luckily i wasn't on the back of her but caused a few headaches and saw a grown man cry....anyway...

Hoping to sort something out by this ride out maybe even sooner :-ss

The damage was an endless list primarily the fairing, but major was the clutch lever that was completely snapped off... :'(

So for for those worried (yeah ok!) im alive and will be back soon....
The only dangerous nut is the one in the seat :s

as some of you may or may not be aware, the Devon Air Ambulance have once AGAIN planned their rideout on the same day as SWB have their friendly planned :roll:

now i can understand that some of you may want to do this, not a problem. what has been suggested to me is that we do a different route but end up at the same finishing point as the DAA run.

what do you think ?

it doesn't worry me either way as the finishing point is teignmouth :)):

i did have a route in mind but can alter it to finish their if people want.

i will start a poll, run it for 10 days and go with the final result.

I'd be up for another friendly ride out, the only issue is that I work in a cafe. July and August are the busiest months there, so I can't make any promises about getting the day off. It's Sunday carvery you see.

I'd say it's better to also finish the route not in Teignmouth, it'll be hectic I'd imagine. We might even clash.. could end up like mods n rockers or something! Or Harley v sportsbike riders..

For some reason google split the map route. If you scroll to the bottom of the map page you will see another page listed.
