P.S. Any other advice for a newbie?

You'll be fine mate. Just wear body armour. If you drop it, pick it up again and carry on.

I can't imagine South Wales being as bad as that.

It isn't, but the rally is in North Wales.

P.S. Any other advice for a newbie?

Hip flask of brandy.

Yeah, that's kind of my main worry. I'm doing all the riding I can (coz I don't 'arf enjoy it ) and I'll take it slowly on the way up there. If anyone else is going from the South West, maybe I can tag along? Not that I want to slow you all down! I'm in Yeovil.

Yes please John I'll do that, we can meet at Bridgwater or something depending on which way you come. Let's arrange it nearer the time.

I'll probably bring food too, and a bottle of rum . I'm a young fart in comparison (28) but with only a month's riding experience . I'll be putting some miles on the clock before the event though. (Or should I say kilometres? )

[devon john]

sounds like a plan Colin
i did my first Dragon in 1972 the done the elephant the next year

we can make arrangements near the date i will be riding with me mate Dave (an undertaker )
its always good to have him with you as you never no
