Anyone fancy a rideout in Somerset. We've done Wales now.

Again a joint venture with those nice, but strange Chaps (and Chapesses), from the Hornets Nest.

The route is similar to the one published last year in TWO magazines Bikers Map. See here

Pencil it in, Rich - after all it's in your own back yard.

I'll be there............don't let that put anyone off, though

Hi guys I don't know if you know but the date you have chosen is also the same day for the 3rd Killspills rally ride with police escort from the Ace Cafe to Whitehall your chance to protest about the diesel spilt on our roads.Last year over 2500 bikers attended.The more that turn up the more notice we will be taken of.More info can be found here www.killspills.org.uk as the date is in Sept perhaps it could be changed? to the following week.

Not really........

It's a joint rideout with the Hornet's Nest and, besides, it's not as if the 2 events clash geographically.

Obviously, if peeps start pulling out of this in favour of the killspills rally then we'll have to think again.

This was not meant as a criticism only an observation that the date clashed with killspills rally.
Obviously people will go where they wish.
I just thought it worth mentioning as the killspills rally is probably the only time we as a biking community may get anyone other than bikers aware of the diesel spill problem.As I am sure many on here as well as on other forums are only too aware of the amount of diesel spilt onto our roads.
