Another bank holiday

A pretty good turnout - 10 riders - for another Monday bank holiday. Local roads were thankfully quiet as there was no school-run to contend with. Close to home, we got a soaking in Sawston and Alan nearly fell over wrestling with his overtrousers.

Wimpole

 After last week's hills, we were glad of an easy ride out to Wimpole and back.

Ups and downs on a bank holiday

Our annual visit to see the bluebells near Littlebury is by far the hilliest ride of the year. With the Shelfords at just 14m above sea level and Littlebury Green topping out at 118m, not to mention all the ups and downs in between, we end up climbing a total of 350m, or just over 1000 ft in old money. All the more reason to enjoy coffee and cake at Compass Courtyard.
