2011-08-13 - Exmouth Exodus

Only 5 weeks to go now!

We rode to Exeter very early, and there was hardly any motor traffic around. It's not the best of roads, but having done it a couple of times now I've slightly taken to its ups and downs. I haven't tried the alternative route yet that tricitybendix mentions.

The alternative route is nice - flat and pretty easy to follow now it's all been signposted. You emerge on to the road at Topsham, about 3 miles from central Exeter.

I'll be on tea-van duties again this year with Chuffy, George the Lobster and Victor the teapot. We were a bit late to the second stop last year due to dropping in at North Curry to help with washing up and cooking. There's always a couple of fast groups who miss out on their second cuppa!
