I thought a 9.30 am start at Chester. With 10.00 am at tesco in Ruthin.
We will leave in one group if you don't mind as last time there were issues.
Also at Tesco, can we please ensure we don't get in the way, they are usually fine with us meeting there, however last time the manger did get complaints from customers.
Show 0ff! Bugsbunny :-(, Think enthusiasm got the better of some on the off, frankly not prepared to risk my licence for a boring straight line bit of tarmac, yep in agreement , let's keep it reasonable together till at least after Ruthin

This is usually a really good ride out, and it's a great way to meet up with fellow BMers, new and old. No pressure, just a bunch of like minded idiots....sorry people....having a good day out.
Everyone welcome...New, old and anywhere in between.
We ride to slowest rider (the speedy freaks usually entertain themselves). No one left behind.
If you have a 125 don't worry, just let me know so I can speak to Exup re the route.
It would be lovely to see some more female riders as well.
If you so have a pilly seat free, please post on the events page.
