Notes:
A slack road ride on seldom ridden lanes.
Modest consumption in multiple pubs.
Legh Arms a bit plastic, but other pubs more authentic and typical of this part of Cheshire.
Posh girls of Cheshire in evidence, especially in Luc’s local.
Quick beer with Luc & Ryan, with Ryan’s latest wheel-build on show.

Pud’s recovery from injury continues (touch wood).
Dan charms his way into late food at the Osteria.
Mixed Italian starter (leftovers?), Pizza, Tiramisu & Peronis enjoyed by all. (A bit over our normal budget though!).
More new product on display from Trevor “Bettaware” Jackson
All home by sensible o’clock.
