Re: 23/05/15 - lands end
DAY 4 I'm going to head over to Bridport/West Bay as I want to see my folks while I'm in the area, then i'll figure out somewhere to stop for the night on the way back up north. Got a week off so not going to rush.

Re: 23/05/15 - lands end
Just a quick update on day 3 trip, proposed route would be along the Embankment at Plymouth, and onto the A379 through Modbury, Kingsbridge to Torcross and the war memorial Tank. From there we head along the coast road and down into Dartmouth. If anyone fancies a wander around Dartmouth, the owners of the Dartmouth Hotel have kindly offered the use of their car park, as motorcycle parking is very limited in the town. Also, the hotel is right next to the higher ferry, who have been very helpful and can accommodate upto 50 bikes in one trip, prices are set at £2 per bike one way. I've also been in contact with Brixham parish council, and they are quite willing to allow us to park on the old fish Quay next to the harbour in the heart of the town at no cost, as long as we self Marshall, and behave in a mature manner? I would suggest that Brixham would be a good point to break for something to eat and drink, as there's enough to cater for all tastes and budgets. From Brixham, we can then follow the coast road to Paignton, and then Torquay.
