Glad to see that Yorkshire will be well represented! Doesn't the sun always shine in Devon Clive? I was hoping not to use the roof on this trip.

I have been on Johns 2015 Cornwall tour and Clive's 2017 Mendips tour and they both organised a full weekend of sunshine :D

Spent the day in North Devon sorting out final bits and bobs for the tour.

Many thanks to Chris & Rose Roberts who alerted me to poor reviews on our chosen Saturday

buffet location.

We have now changed the location and by a chance message on Facebook over the weekend have secured

free parking aswell as free travel for everyone at the famous Lynton/Lynmouth Cliff Railway.

With the cars parked at the top and the buffet at the bottom i'm pretty sure everyone will use the free

travel.

Glad to have sorted out directions etc and check the route for obstacles..(Thanks again Chris)

A few photos below as a taster...

Everyone has been sent a tour itinerary today via

1st class post , unless I've already hand delivered yours.

I would suggest using M5 J27 & A361.

A39 from Bridgewater is nearly 1 hour longer and we

will be travelling on some of it on the Saturday.

Regards

That's what I'd expect from someone with Celtic blood.

We're in Devon so it cream first ...

Proper Job

All looks nice, and wish I was with you, I'm sure you'll all have a great trip, and hope the weather holds for you. Just remind Eddie to get his wheel centre caps all the right way up when he parks it :)
