Most definatley out on Sunday. Intend to visit the Bude Classic Show at some point.

Hopefuly we can combine the two and get a drive in with the desternation as Bude. Get to show your little Evo the way down my favorite road that way.biggrin

Suggestion for a meeting point any one. Whiddon Down springs to mind as a starter for 10. Have a nice route in mind.

I'd be tempted by an early drive out to Bude, but I would have to bail early and head to my Dad's at Okehampton.

Bude is the middle of nowhere, is that the best we can do

Maybe an early start wouldnt hurt, get back at a decent time.
Where are we meeting/starting ?

I'd be up for this, some great roads I could take you on headed to and from Bude. If the weathers good where are we going to meet, don't mind dropping down to Exeter and a blast up eary doors.

I've got a route planned, leaving Plymouth about 10am.



Unfortunately, it's then straight to Chippenham driving a minibus! frown

Roads in and out of Bude from the south & South East are great.

Happy to start early as you like to aviod traffic. ( Except Lee will still be asleep )

Fingers crossed for some good weather.

You have been 10 mins away from bude on many of the drives we have taken.
The Atlantic highway is rated one of the best in the uk. I would be up for a "fairly" early start but not to early hehe
Have a couple routes in mind myself. Sourton down or whiddon down or maybe even exeter services start at 9 run out to bude and a drive after??

I dont think John will want to go all way to Exeeter tho, so we would have to stop at Sourton Down anyway to meet the guys from the West.

So therefore, to save me going the wrong direction for 20 minutes, I will go to Sourton Down

Is that where the Shell garage and the big layby parking is ?

Shall we say Sourton Down at 9.00 - 9.30 ?
