Despite a rather unpromising weather forecast a team of five met up at Birchanger Services, off the M11, for a ride. Dave Plumb was kind enough to lead again and we had great riding roads all day. Lunch was taken at the fine Waterfront Diner at the Suffolk Water Park where we overlooked a nice lake complete with a plethora of ducks, geese and other winged thingies. We got there via Thaxted, Braintree, Sudbury, Hadleigh and then to Bramford. Dave had a puncture on the way which was impressively fixed in about ten minutes! Our route back was Needham Market, Monks Eleigh, Cavendish, Clare and Finchingfield. No stop was taken coming home. We got there with just the odd spot of rain, but enough to make the roads damp. After lunch the rain was light but persistent. We still enjoyed it! Just me missing in the picture as I took it. Great company… Regards, Steve A
