sunny intervals
Report:
Another warm late October day greeted 8 riders. We set off on a longer loop to The White Horse at Woolstone at a determined lick into the wind. Determined, that was, to get to coffee before the 1 star group as the pub had warned us of a slow coffee machine!
We were all suitably supplied and slabs of chocolate gateau were provided to those of us still fortunate enough to be allowed such delights!
The warm weather caused arm warmers to be discarded for the return trip and the tail wind made this a pleasant easy ride.
Coffees and lunch were enjoyed by a few at Munchies on our return.
Distance:
41.00 km (25.48 mi)
