Well done that man.
Lovely part of the world, and the roads are fantastic here.
Did you go on to Minehead? Its a good run. Then take the road from Minehead to Dunster and down to Tiverton, visit the canal, then back along the A361 to Barnstaple. Its a 120 mile round trip.
That Simonsbath road from Blackmore Gate is something else all along the edge of the Moors.
Also quite good is the A39 from Barnstaple to Bude, Wadebridge, Padstow and as time permits onto Falmouth.
Then there is the south coast, not so interesting but still good. Fowey to Polpero, Looe Portwinkle, then Liskeard Launceston A388 to Holsworthy.
By the way, where did you stay?
I have a Holiday chalet just outside Bideford, ideal for such a trip. That's what I was going to offer you at a very good price......
But too late now.
