Great ride out. Cheers Steve, cheers everyone.
Great roads as always, great company and the sun even came out for a moment on the way home.
Hope we get another one in before the winter lay up. \m/

And thanks to Balki for the escort through Exeter on the way back. Saved a lot of hassle. cheers.

Thanks for organising (use the term loosly lol) the day out and leading Steve.....very enjoyable - great route, good company and the 'entertainment' (inadvertent inflatable crash vest demo) was nothing short of brilliant! lol (who was that?).

Thanks to Balki for the escort through Exeter on the way back......I think Jim and I might have made a few unintended detours without you!

Awesome ride steve-o well planned and a great time had by all (thanks farmermatt for the inflatable vest demo)
Happy to lead you through Exeter as its a much more enjoyable route than the mway ( but a few too many twists and turns if you don't know the town )
Looking forward to the next one ;-)

Have been told to direct-wire the fan to an on/off switch. Shall attempt this when I get it back with a nice new rear PR4 on Friday.
Hope not to fry the ECU :ympray:
