    Tempted to join you all for this as missed it last year - have wanted a run down to my old Uni city of Plymouth (and grab a Jaspers burger at the Barbican) for a while so could combine the two and stay over Sunday night somewhere.

    Looks like a few changes of rooms but nothing up for grabs - I'll book up a twin if there is one available then if anyone else wants to join it saves a bit of coin for both

    08:00 is bloody early start time though Si but know its prob. needed!

    Did you go over the top of Exmoor from the M5 last time and drop down the A361 or similar - its a lovely route but know it adds time esp with a big group.

    Will prob. be on the R1 so fuel stops needed at 120 odd miles - sorry dudes!

    That takes me back - for those who don't know it / not been Jaspers is just an awesome independent cafe / burger place

    Cap'n Jaspers | Serving fine food in Plymouth's Barbican since 1978

    Shame its not really on the way 'home' but a visit there for 'brunch', then a run back over Dartmoor via Princetown would be a cracking run but know it would be a pretty long trek

    Looking doubtful I can make this too as I was informed yesterday bike has been written off what cat? dont know until later this morning.

    The courtesy bike I received is a 600 Divi and it's going back due to my rant over the forks out of line and it's a unexceptable replacement bike.

    Still something may turnaround,still time.

    I could be up for this if I'm invited, do we have an idea of cost? I still am yet to meet the forum lads - I'm in London so can meet most weekends in south east area.
