Looks cool, if I had any money left this month I would go.

Have to see how much cash I have spare nearer to the day.

I know Plymouth and the surrounding area well, so, be nice to be back down there again

I did it last year and will do it again this year.

Its a good laugh, but it is just a load of bikes riding together slowly, nothing 'spirited'.

I've taken part in one and enjoyed it, however the next one i did i went straight to the hoe in plymouth and watched all the bikes arrive, i would probably do the latter again, you spend have the time jammed in traffic with the bike temperature going through the roof.

Yup - I've done it. Good wheeze. Some great people and great bikes. I would suggest parking anywhere but on the Hoe...just before you get to the Hoe you pass 'The Citadel' - it's MOD property in the form of an old castle/fortification now the home of 29 Commando Royal Artillery. Park on the grass next to the wall, lots of others do and it makes it easy for when you want to leave. The Hoe will be chocker.
Enjoy.

Eddit - I won't be going because the missus works Sundays which means I get to look after the kids...hmm, could get the bus in I suppose.

I went and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Managed to get myself boxed in though so was there an hour longer than I wanted to be!!!

Saw a few SV's around. I was parked by the Renault garage/Cafe on the industrial estate. Blue SV with gold forks.

I also went today and had a great time, Phil when you entered the stream of traffic from were you were parked were you let out by a silver sv? if so that was me.
