Riders:Chris BaileyDavid Jackson Julie Haynes Karl Blake Louise Bowers Oliver Purcell Richard Kidd Roger Postbeschild Steve Swanton Riders = 9 Weather: Report:Lovely weather, Blakes was well up to snuff, lovely ride in general until we reached Park Lane where a bike-only incident left Steve and Karl nursing injuries.After a brief spot of first aid, both were able to continue and completed the ride. Karl went home to be mollycoddled and Steve came back to ours to clean up the wounds, rehydrate, and ensure that delayed shock wasn't going to be an issue. He returned home by bike, although a lift was offered. Thanks go to the rest of the group for traffic management (there wasn't a lot on Park lane) and for generally remaining calm. Incident report completed to CUK (a first for me!) | ||
