i study in bristol but my parents home is just south of exeter (small village called mamhead, near dawlish). is this south enough?
although, having said that, im increasingly not there, seeing as they keep on increasing my term lengths, so i dont know if i could ever be of any use.

I'm from Kenton! There are a few of us from around Exeter I see, although I live in the exotica that is Hatfield term time.

where/whats that then? we only moved down last year and i have been at uni most of the time so i dont know much of hte local area.
Do you know the main entrance to Mamhead house and the twisty hill that takes you up to the top of Haldon towards the racecourse?
Coming down that at full chat is entertaining not least because half the corners are off camber meaning you can slide with ease round them and then by the time you've cooked the brakes sufficiently there is the hairpin near the bottom to negotiate.
Look for the hole in the hedge on the left there, a friend parked it on it's side trying to go round it too fast.

Yep i know this hill. you speed down it!!?? i used to fly up over it usually sideways on my quad. down would be nuts or is it closed off for a rally stage?
Some fantastic lanes around though for budding rally drivers.
