Ride report for 24th October

Saturday 24/10/20  Thyme after Time not to Hamish’s

 

A week ago Charlie phoned me and asked if I would lead today. He said I could go anywhere and that the weather forecast was good. When we finished the call I looked up the forecast and it was rain all day with gale force winds. He won’t catch me again like that.

 

My forecast was totally accurate and I was surprised that 8 people were on bikes at Thyme after Time and 2 others with a wheel at each corner.

 

Never have I seen a group of cyclists so unenthusiastic about doing the ride and never have I felt so glad they felt like that. We sensibly decided to go home.

 

Outside the group photo was taken including one of the latest aerodynamic over trousers that Charlie and

I were modelling.

 

Those at coffee were  Jill, Mary, Ron, Lorraine, Charlie, Ben, Paul and Roger with Richard and Alan in cars.
