Riders: Barry Stanton Chris Marchant Des Higgs Gareth Smith Jon Townsin Karl Blake Roger Postbeschild Val Smith Riders = 8 Weather: Report: 8 riders left on a pretty much perfect summer evening. A thankfully incident free ride, despite my alleged attempt to take out Karl (again). Fines were awarded for passing the ride leader at a tariff of 50p per transgression - both Karl and Barry were on £1.50 each but the aforementioned manoeuvre on Karl caused me to cancel his fine and it didn't seem fair to just charge Barry! A note of caution when riding out of the sun, there was a close incident with Gareth on the A417 where he believes that the overtaking driver just didn't see him.
