OK Boys n Girls time's moving on and this is now only a month away .Did a recce yesterday and spoke to the lady at Horner Tea Garden .She would like an idea of numbers and i guess some idea of who wants a Cream Tea etc .So far i think between me and Les we are about a dozen and i know 3 others who might be coming .
We shall be meeting around the Minehead Mc Donalds area at 10 o clock for a 1030 ride out .I say the area as parking is off street down side roads nearby unless you want to pay about £6 in a car park !Opposite McDs and Morrisons are trading estates where it's possible to park and you'll see plenty of fit looking MTBers in various stages of bike fettling and wardrobe malfunctions ! 😯 If you require any more info either Les or myself should be able to help .I'm hoping Mr Knott will be the unofficial photographer but obviously feel free to bring your own equipment .
If you've not been on one before the emphasis is on the social aspect so please don't intimidate me and the other slow(er) people by showing off your race pace !It's likely that we will end up with 2 groups . Les needs to go to the top of Dunkery for a photo but if anyone wants to miss that bit out i will take the others around rather than over !Right i think thats covered everything hopefully the weather gods will behave as they did yesterday .See you there ! 😀
Its my cousins wedding that day. 🙁
Hope to be there .I'm camping at Porlock then so hope to ride to the start via Selworthy and North Hill.
pete we will be coming back down that way to finish with fish n chips on the beach !
S.O. thats a shame .
Yarp... 😆
Will let you know how many other "victims" i manage to round up !!
Still not sure OF - does that help? If the lady runs out of cream teas I won't worry, I'll just share yours 🙂
Abx
It's on my calendar - really hope I can make it!
No cream teas for me tho
Hi OF. I'm on Les's list. Whilst a cream tea isn't something I'd normally turn down, I don't think I could manage one mid ride. A cuppa and a choccy muffin will suffice for me. Looking forward to my weekend oop norf!, see you soon.
thanks for the replies folks hey Ab good to hear from you lovely hope you can make it x
Hoping to make this, but may not want to spend another 3 hours after 7 the day before. Count me in until further notice.
see you there dude
Give this a bump i think !
I reckon you need to post a couple of tempting photos from last time - and I don't mean the cream teas!
Seeing as you asked OF yes I'll be there with a few friends 😀
BUMP!!!
Hi, I will be there, looking forward to this ride and cream teas 🙂
looking like it'll be the Monday/Princetown ride for me too...extension permitting!
Thinking about it if I can get a few things sorted. Will drop you a mail next week if am Roly 😀
I'll be there! Looking forward to the cream tea 😀
I wont be able to make it, weather forecast is going to be rain on Sunday.
I'll be there unless it's puckin' fissing down, no other victims tho,
The "Jessies" are all decorating/waxing their legs etc... 🙄
sorry Roland im gonna have to cry off 🙁
hope you have as much fun as we had on the q's ride today 8)
grumble grumble grumble.. not riding til monday grumble grumble.. 😐
Sorry to let you down OF. Another time.
What a fab day! Thanks OF and CB for arranging
Great route and company, cream tea in the sun, chips pea fritter and curry sauce...almost doesn't get any better! Also, bizarrely, rather enjoyed cycling up the McMillan way to Dunkery... good sense of achievement 🙂
Thanks to everyone there who made it so enjoyable!
Les - sorry didn't get to say goodbye, happy birthday for tomorrow, hope Dartmoor is excellent.
Anna has very hairy knees! 😯
Cheers everyone, that was a great day riding- forgot how fantastic Exmoor can be! Good to put some faces to names too. Happy Birthday Les, have a great time on Dartmoor today!
Mmmm cream teas...
