For those who know the area, a friend and I rode up to Princtown via the Eylesbarrow climb for a pie in the pub followed by the Widowmaker descent at night. Easily made for the best night ride yet. Said friend at the top of the climb below.

Good bit of distance covered over the late-afternoon/evening as well, at around 78km.

Guessing that you did far more than the traditional Burrator loop! Sounds like a good time - I remember night riding round there and being momentarily s**t scared upon coming to a stop to then realise I was surrounded by soldiers on night ops....

We headed all the way up from Plymouth (we're both students there).

I'm not sure I' like finding myself in the middle of a group of soldier unknowingly ๐Ÿ˜ฏ
