I don't know Exeter all that well, is it the McDonald's in Marsh Barton?

Looks like farzackly that Mr M, the one just off Alphington Road

Folks, be VERY careful on the A396 back to Tivvy. The Exe Valley road, while very pitcherskew, has squillions of broad leaf trees as well as bends along it - and trees and wet roads and the UK in late Autumn/early winter = leaves, leaves and more leaves on the road which = potential skating rink territory. I know, I was only there late last week with a 7.5 tonner and a dead Citroen on the back c/o an RTA involving exactly this, and for a change was pretty glad I had a wheel at each corner rather than just one at each end.

Oh, and also look out for loose Pheasants on the road (and sometimes Peasants too), north of the Oakfordbridge area. No kidding, you'll see road signs about it, and they ain't joking.

I look forward to survivor's tales at the next pub meet.

Meanwhile, anyone want to buy my track-ready CBR 600 Steeley?
I'm going back to have another go at Grasstrack Sidecar racing next year so the Honda track bike's for sale. Especialy attractive price for the first luck SWB member to apply :D

I guess I should have another look at the route to remember where I'm going.
