Riders: David Bridge Des Higgs Eddie Little John Groves Karl Blake Paul Bentley Terry Ryland Riders = 7 Weather: Report: A perfect day for cycling so we made the most of it by setting a brisk pace for our destination of Ashbury for coffee. The route was very pretty with lots of good views from the Springline into the valley. Even the five windmills in the distance were gleaming white! A ride with no incidents so not too much to write about other than it was a very good group and good company. Thank you all Des
Distance: 51.50 km (32.00 mi)
