Sounds like you guys had a good ride today. I saved myself for Thruxton 2moro.

Hope to catch the ride out on the 7th if the weather is ok.

I look forward to riding with you again dude. Even if you did mess up on my fav bend

I think everyone had the same prob with that one.

Fantastic day. Sunny with a tiney bit of drizzle at one point.

Jak did a great job and food was gorgeous too. Thank you.

Junctions were being marked brilliantly at the start of the day but after Wemouth it went to peices. Like Nick said if everyone who knows the route is willing to help out then it wouldn't become so frustraing for the odd ones who is doing it.

Thank you to Nick and Billnom8's for helping with juction marking

Just sorry a few got lost again

Anyway thanks all for a awesome time and turnout. Look forward to next time

And Pedro i don't think the insurance company would blame me for your loooney riding matey.

T'was a great day out, good to meet up with the old timers and a few new ones.

Good route, apart from the boring trek up and down the A38 at the start and end of the day.

Nice choice of pub with good food....thanks to Jak.

Looking forward to a few more over the summer

Did you say that Blimey

... it wasn't aimed at you (honestly), missed having my youngest around as she is much better at getting people to part with their money... the funniest bit was saying it was for cancer research uk whilst most were enjoying a fag

after an abysmal start to my day it turned out well in the end - knocked an indicator off getting the bike out of the shed, then found I couldnt get it up the bank of my front garden for the first time - left mud 15 feet up the front wall and churned up all the grass - then after finally getting the bike out to the road i turned my back and it fell off the sidestand

didnt arrive at haldon till about 10.45 and everyone was gone

- but managed to catch everyone just leaving Sidford.

good to meet a few new faces and see all the familiar ones again. Sniffalot- bet you weren't expecting to see your grandad in weymouth eating his chips were you? ;) and billinom8s thanks for the insulation tape

good job you pre-ordered the food too Jak or you would have been waiting ages...

Have to say thanks to Jak for organising the day. I had a really good time time and it was nice to put faces to names. The biggest thing for me though is that i've come away from the ride out with a whole lot more confidence in my riding.
Once again thanks everyone for a great day out
