Riders:Eddie LittleJohn Groves John Tranter Joy Arthur Lisa Footner Nick Dunton Sharon Bedford Riders = 7 Weather:  Report:We departed Grove on a very chilly autumnal morning with light cloud, though it did feel good to be out. The roads were fairly quiet with most motorists being courteous as they passed. It was also nice to be thanked by some horse riders for being courteous & slowing down! Parts of the route were new to some people on the ride which is encouraging to know! We all enjoyed some hot beverages at HumbleBumbleCafe, though the service was a little slow, but well worth the wait! On the return leg we suffered quite a strong head wind, many thanks to Nick for taking the lead at the front for a while, very much appreciated! A lovely ride with excellent company! Hopefully see you all on another ride very soon!  | ||
