I was out for a ride in Haldon Forest in Exeter earlier tonight and I saw a big group of riders roll past. Does anyone know who they are or how to contact them ? I regularly work in that area and it's getting a bit boring riding on my own.
Any other group ride info in the Exeter and Taunton areas would be much appreciated.
EMBC probably:

But maybe not looking at the calendar - give them a buzz though 🙂
Pretty sure that'll be the Exeter Wheelers. Think they meet at the Ley Arms on a Wed, and ride up, but not sure exactly when- I know some of them hang out here, so they'll proob be along in a mo and tell you when 🙂
EMBC were down the pub tonight, where I should have been grrr...
It was probably us. We ride up from the Ley Arms on a wednesday but we're not the Exeter Wheelers. Basically we're an informal group that rides all year, an oddball mix of big travel bikes, hardtails, body armour and singlespeeds. Numbers from 2 or 3 in the winter to 25 plus on a sunny summers evening like last night. We meet at 6.30 at the Ley Arms, or 7.00 at the ridge road by the A38 underpass.

Is it a regular Wednesday night ride?
Are "outsiders" welcome?
I don't know the area that well, where is the Ley Arms?
Yep, every wednesday pretty much 52 weeks a year.
Don't worry, we were all outsiders when we first rode with the group, so yes, all welcome.
The Ley Arms is in Kenn [url= http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=292285&y=85570&z=120&sv=292285,85570&st=4&ar=y&mapp=map.srf&searchp=ids.srf&dn=684&ax=292285&ay=85570&lm=0 ]here[/url]
The upper rendezvous is by the A38 bridge on the ridge road [url= http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=289690&y=83805&z=120&sv=289690,83805&st=4&ar=y&mapp=map.srf&searchp=ids.srf&dn=684&ax=289690&ay=83805&lm=0 ]here[/url]

I'm hoping to make it along tomorrow.
See you at the Ley Arms.
