    Event Details:
    This is our second official annual meet, and what a meet it'll be. We have based the ride around Plymouth in a bid to find some of the countries best roads. We've planned a fairly large circuit, starting at Plymouth, going through Newquay, looping back through Falmouth and then back to Plymouth.

    As many of you know on the 13th June 2010, Plymouth plays host to the Mega Ride - the largest UK charity ride. Seeing that it's just around the corner from us it would be rude not to go. We would suggest members to turn up late afternoon / evening on Friday the 11th June to the accommodating campsite we have located, this will allow plenty of time to get ready for the ride the following day and a chance to guzzle some beers (obviously keeping in mind with legal limits for the ride the next day! ;) ).

    We feel that with every annual fest we would like to base it in different parts of the country to try and suit all members, and to find some fantastic biking roads. After all whats the point of only riding the roads you're familiar with?

    Event Date: 12th June - 13th June 2010
    In a bid to avoid the caravans and congested roads we chose this date, as we understand that many members have commitments during school holidays. Hopefully this is a date that many already have free in the diary, and if it's not cancel whatever you have planned! :p

    Saturdays Route:

    Confirming:
    Please confirm with us here if you're going to attend, we will be in contact with those who've confirmed their attendance closer to the time for arrangements.

    Thanks:
    I myself and on behalf of the team would like to thank Nige, for help planning the route and finding an appropriate camp site. I would also like to thank Edski675 for also help planning this event.

    675.cc hope that you'll be able to attend this meet, and we will look forward seeing you there.

    Can't do this one I'm afraid. Tis the wifes birthday weekend, and as I've managed to double book myself with bike stuff on my sons 1st birthday this weekend I've some serious brownie points to make up. Mind you in my defence I booked the bike stuff during my sons birthday before he was born lol.

    Hopefully make the next one.
