Weds 18th Sept

1 comment

The Easy Weds group went out through Bottesford to Woolsthorpe and climbed up onto the ridge via the Belvoir road. We had a touch of wheels going through Eastwell and Mary came down. Luckily, everyone else stayed upright (just) and after checking that Mary was OK, we carried on past the Fishing Lakes to drop down the hill into Long Clawson and Hickling. Another nice, warm day and we were able to sit outside at the cafe. Back via the usual route with me and Sue turning off near Saxondale. I ended up with 44 miles at 15.7 average.

 

I hope Mary is OK. She seemed to have a sore shoulder but was able to carry on riding with us.

Hope Mary is OK.

We had a little group (some regulars on holiday) and went to Stathern. 42 gentle miles for me.

A chilly start but it was pleasant sitting in the sunshine outside the café.

    Weds 1st Jan - New Years Day

    8 out today. We headed out along the Trent valley to Kelham and Bathley, where Mike Hankin and friend left us. The rest of us (Me, Sue, Llew, Colin, Steve Perkins and Kev Humphreys), headed for Hockerton via Caunton with a tea stop at Newfield Dairy. Back through Southwell, Fiskerton and Hoveringham. A nice day out on quiet roads, but it was cold and there was a rising SW wind on the way back. 45 miles for me at just under 15mph.

    Wednesday 18 December

    It was a cold morning but no sign of the forecast frost or ice. The fog was mainly on the high ground. Only 3 of us in the easy group and we stuck to the low lands. We went via Kilvington to the new café at the Boot & Shoe at Flintham. Café has 3 tables seating 16 people and the are 3 armchairs. Very cosy and a little more expensive than some cafes - I had a pot of tea and a large sausage roll for £4.50. On the way home we even had a glimpse of the sun! Only 38 miles for me and we were back a little earlier than usual. Far enough for December for me these days.

    Sunday 1 December

    A cold day, but not as cold as yesterday. Still a little ice around so kept off the lanes at first. Some went to Newark while ten of us had an easy ride to Farnsfield including Jon Kettell up from Somerset on a visit. A very social gathering at the Woodberry Café for a longer stop than usual. Clockwise from left Mark Haywood, Richard Buckwell, Kevin Humphreys, Ed Ward, Jon Kettell, Phil Hooks, Dave Gretton, Michael Falter, James Pam and Dave Waring.
