Rideout from Taunton Saturday afternoon

Discussion in 'Rideouts & Events' started by Dave, Oct 20, 2012.

  1. Meet 1:00pm Murco servoce station on Blackbrook roundabout J25 M5
     
  2. Had a nice blat thru Langport and the seven bends via Othery to Bridgwater for a cuppa and a mooch around Riders. I got the warranty and free servicing on my bike confirmed and have her booked-in for the 600 mile check and oil change on Wednesday.
     
  3. Glad you had a good day out. You passed so close to my house that you could've popped-in for a cuppa - except I was out on my bike :biggrin:
     
  4. I took Trooper round from the southwestbiker forum, saw a few Ducatis out to play ...no sedici though:wink:

    the drop down from the 303 to Taunton was fun ...not done that way for a long time

  5. That's a nice run :)
     
  6. I was trying to join up all my favourite bits.....Dorchester to the A303, 7 Bends, Castle Cary to Wincanton, Wincanton to Sherborne and Sherborne to Dorchester.

    I realise now that there is also a speed element which helps to join the corners together which I missed yesterday (Trooper was on a Triumph TT600 and stuck to all the speed limits........ like you should) I didn't want to loose him as he's not been out that way before.
     
  7. That does indeed look like a nice route. Just for info, the small country road to the right of the A352, is also a pleasant amble. Runs through Piddletrenthide ( I kid you not), there are a couple of nice pubs along the river Piddle IIRC

    TT

    p.s. nothing wrong with a Triumph TT600, ridden at speed limit, or not!!,
