Crew : PTD, Dunc, Pete, El Pres, Croxy, Bern, Doog, Troll,
Pub : Butty, TJ & Ruth
Route : Bottom of the Zag – Teggs Nose – The Leathers – Nessit – Standing Stone – Boardwalk descent – Tarmac to The King’s Head
Conditions : Fairly good – very slippery on the descent of Teggs – wet on exit from the Pub
Notes :
- A PTD ride and pub choice idea . Food logistics execution by yours truly
- The forest was chosen by Mr Croxford so we could find a snacking stop to share his French sausage (Many double entendres in the WhatsApp chat before hand ) .
- Croxy was trying to get his annual ride turnout stats up….at the eleventh hour
- The French snacking never happened as we ran out of time messing about in the forest
- We share the far end of the King’s head with The Sutton Mafia (Andy, Mark & Phil and The Fourth Man)
- The King’s head was a very good choice – session IPA at 4.4% , something called Kodiak . Good nosh and excellent service .
- Butty & TJ arrive at the pub late on with very good news and big smiles
- Bernards winter MTB wardrobe has a full reveal – three layers of vintage football shirts !
