Somerset/Devon GP!!! Part 2!!!
 
I've now completed 100% of this route and it's a cracker, even though it's a bank holiday weekend it was ridiculously quiet. :D

I'll now struggle to do any dates in May :rolleyes: so i've had a look at possible other dates and June looks promising. I'm keeping it to Saturdays only to limit the choice!!!

We'll meet in Sainsbury's car park just off junction 25 (M5) for fuel/pee stop, leaving by 11am prompt!!!

I propose we have our first stop in Minehead for lunch, ice cream/pee stop and photos ect (fuel if need)..

Then up the famous Porlock Hill onto Lynton/Lynmouth - Barnstaple (Fuel Stop) - Crediton - Tiverton - Bampton - Wiveliscombe - Taunton (Sainsbury's again)

The route will take a good part of the afternoon it's 140miles but i've tried to avoid the main roads keeping us away from the Sunday drivers ect.

The usual drop off system will be used and a TEC would be handy, i'll provide a hi-viz jacket for the lucky one. This rideout is open to everyone from newbie to seasoned veteran, i'm not the fastest but the pace will be good!!

So once we get a date i'll stick to it this time, you'll have until the end of this month to vote!!!!
