8 in what I assume is either the easy group or the slightly faster easy group. Out along the TRent valley, SOuthwell, HOckerton, caunton, left and back towards Eakring (where we met up with DOctor JOe) BIlsthorpe and then to Hexgrave cafe (which was shut) ..... and so to plan B Fransfield which was thankfully open. Back via GReaves LAne and the usual route. PLenty of speed down Past EPperstone with the NOrtherly wind And to LOwdham. 54m for me. uNsure why the capital letters are all over the place??? , Happy new year to all. đźš´

Five of us in the ultra-easy group went to Hardy's Farm Shop café at Farndon. It is a good café but bikes are out of sight, so we take them inside the shop area.
A cold but bright and dry day and, fortunately, the roads were clean for Terry's new bike.
We slowed a lot towards the end as one of the older riders tends to fade, but this group keeps everyone riding as long as possible. There was only one rider younger than me!
40 miles for me to start the New Year.
Dr Joe set off with 7 others of us in the slightly easy medium rare group but decided the erudition of our conversations necessitated he join another group( that or he was wheezing alot). We warmed up in the Chili 🌶 etal in Tuxford before enjoying tailwind home. Lovely start to 2019.
