Weather:
white cloudcloudy with light rain
Report:
A good turnout for the first Pub ride of the season; Everyone arrived early, with the first group (of 6) led by Kath leaving just after 20 past, and the second group (9) about 5 minutes later, I assume the first group's ride was uneventful, as we didn't see them at all on-route; Also uneventful in our group, most of the ride was dry, but there was a brief downpour as we approached Charney, just enough to pause to put waterproofs on.... it must have been very localized, as roads where dry again as we approached the Fox, where the peacocks were noisly welcoming us! We paused and the group split with some returning direct to the start, and others opting for a beer / food. Anyone else get bitten to death my the midges whilst parking their bike at the fox?
