Notes
Cracking pace from BL saw Palmer & Phil struggling to hang on ;). Interesting grassy descent from standing stone. A bit more climbing (phew) up to A54- Nic tries 20 seconds of extra hard pedalling and nearly has a heart attack. Eagle & Child track is fabulous- a little bit of everything- we must do it more often. Swoopy tracks down to YHA sees Big Nic’s & Palmers tyre go ‘pop’. Group splits, with the fast boys racing to Hanging Gate to secure food. By the Dane, Andy gets familiar with the wildlife & Dan discovers the river & the road are named after him. At the pub (Hello Boys!) Burgers for most, with a mix of bitter & Lager (well, it’s nearly summer now!). AoE with whiskey & water. Long, cool ride home. All good.
