Notes:
Good to see Dan again, and a welcome return for Dave H (not seen since April) .
Mr T filled the route leadership vacuum & god was thus in his heaven once more.
He delivered a classic new route in familiar territory.
And we toasted his success with a Polish Liqueur drinkies stop after our descent from Shining Tor.
By Rainow the crew had dispersed a bit, and Mr T pulled another surprise out of his hat with the cheeky route down to Rainow via Ingersley vale . Oakenbank Lane must be sulking now.
Storm Brewery’s finest ales and fine nosh awaited us at the Poachers.
El Pres came along to celebrate another North Macc route and post ride hostelery 😉
T.J. Arrived in www.brightbikelights.com livery. Just in time to talk warranty small print with 3sheds and Pete 😉
What with the Nancies in residence as well, it was almost like coming home .
