West Country Bimble

Post by onittino3 » Tue Jul 19, 2016 7:28 pm

My friend Chris and I head out tomorrow for a five day tour of the west Country, starting in Crawley West Sussex, our first day is a 190 mile ride to Brean sands in Somerset we don't really have a firm plan, but the weather looks good, we will buzzing around Somerset for a couple of days, will tackle Exmoor, while were up that end, and were also looking to spend some time in south Devon and Dorset, before heading home, All you Yocalls keep an eye out for us and give us a no finger wave if you see us :mrgreen:

Bikes all kitted up and ready to go.

We made good progress today even though I got a puncture, went through Cheddar Gorge and are now in a field enjoying a well deserved beer, 190 miles covered.

Guys, had a blast ridding around the West country, we covered around 600 miles, in total with only a puncture slowing us down for half an hour, i didn't take as many photo's as i thought i would, maybe it was because we stayed on a working Cider Farm, with its own bar for 2 nights :o
