Notes:
An El Presidente eating idea and logistics operation . Fine Beer choices at £1.12 a can !!
Such a big turnout we needed two bubbles
It has been a while since we ventured as far as the Cat or Chumby , but the evening was conducive to a bigger ride.
Paragliders were enjoying the good conditions over Shining Tor
The Troll had a comedy off/downhill dance on the steep descent of upper Chumby
Nature Notes : Five spot burnet (at Peak View ) and an owl sighting as we passed the Water Works in Langley.
A push /ride for some up to Teggs …where we found Biggus Nikkus had joined us – and Alex joined us later.
Excellent Pizza and wedges – I almost persuaded El pres to over order..
Dunc and Butty bring a wee dram !
An Oakenbank mishap for TJ on the return to Poynton …resulting in a very late arrival back home, but fortunately no A&E
