An excellent turnout last week the Equality Commission would have been proud of us 5 female, 5 male. I thought the Berechurch arms was ok particularly as we had the government discount applied to the food.

This week we will ride to Andy’s Cafe at Severalls, for those of you who have not been there it is a long steady climb downhill all the way back. I would like to discuss routes over lunch and increasing the time on the saddle.

The following week we will go to Fillpots the Cafe has re-opened, the new longer route about 15 miles will give us the opportunity to stretch our legs.

I am considering Abberton for our next long ride any comments.

We have been back in the saddle since 24th June with the exception of last week that was too hot. Numbers have been between 6 to 12 of us and a few new routes tried. We will continue the longer ride ever 4 weeks as I feel we learnt a lot on the first ride.

I would like to have a meeting to discuss routes as we need fresh ideas, maybe one week we could do this before we set off.

Some of our stoping places have still not reopened and a few have gone upmarket making a lunch stop expensive, this week will take an old route with modifications to the Berechurch Arms
