Good point, would be good to meet some of the traitors too!!!
It's on Sunday 15th June, meeting at ten at Buds Cafe, the rideout starts at 12.
It's a very slow ride so anyone can get involved, not just the hedonists!

The more the merrier, but Beenz, it's a SLOW ride. Should be a few thousand bikes by the time we reach the final destination on Plymouth Hoe.

Believe me when I say it's not one of 'those' ride outs. It's a charity event and very slow!

Turn into the industrial estate and head down towards the corner. You'll see a Renault garaged called Plymstock Commercials, it's just before it. Should be signed quite well so keep your eye out.
I'll pm you my mobile number just in case you have any difficulties.

Ahhh, The Plymouth Mega Ride... I remember back before the clone wars with your father Luke...
Sorry lost it a bit there, anyway, I shall not be making it this year sadly.
However if anyone bumps into the ever lovely Helen from Surepass who I believe is one of the organisers, please pass her my love. She will know who I am, I am the girl who broke her hire bike on a DAS course and cried on the instructor! :lol:
My first Mega Ride was in 95 on a ropey Super Dream, lots of fun and you know what I have not done it since. Any of you who are going for the first time will have a real laugh. :smt023

No need for it to be dry, you'll prob get rained on tomorrow. LOL.
See ya tomorrow, I'll be there from ten, though about half past I'll be in the Renault garage, washing my bike!!!
Did this today, was good fun.
Having never done it, or seen it before it is quite spectacular and made even better by the great turn out along the route by locals.

My god there were alot of bikes! I was in Plymouth with no idea what was happening. By the time 500 bikes had gone past I went home. Saw a few SVs though; I'll upload the pictures tonight.

There's one pint in particular where the convoy gets stopped at some traffic lights and just before the lights change loads of people red-line their bikes! Awesome (I may have taken part in this ritual too!

Should've found a way to get down here as it's a great laugh, sure we coulda found someone to take ya pillion!
Anywho, roll on next year, hopefully it'll be even bigger!

No, I'm helping sail a boat up from Plymouth to Newcastle next week so was just scouting it out. The power boats were amazing! I'll upload some photos of it all in a bit :)

Sorry i missed you guys, by the time a load of us got together and set off up it was well gone 10, i did wanna come say hello though.
Hmm my bike was bouncing off the limiter from marshmills to the hoe, dam those kids holding up the signs "beep, REV it" think it deserves an oil and filter change now
phil24_7
16-06-08, 07:45 PM
Ha ha, I may have revved mine a little zealously too, though I did it next to a sleeping baby at 1 point and it didn't even stir!!!
Found myself dancing to Status Que whilst sat on the bike waiting to park on the Hoe, amused a few people around me.
