Looks like we might have a weather window tomorrow morning between the frost and the rain !

So as we failed to do it in January and last week, lets have a third attempt at the Campton loop

Ashwell-station road-Steeple-Guilden-Wrestlingworth-Dunton-Langford-Clifton-Mepshall-Campton-Upper Gravenhurst-Shillington-Henlow Camp-Langford-Hinxworth-Ashwell (38 miles)

See you tomorrow, wrap up warm

Eight or so of us out this morning to enjoy the weather window. Well I say window, more like a weather arrow slot............

So headed off onto loop 1, up to Wrestlingworth and then into Potton, and down into Dunton. Best described as breezy by this point. Decided that Campton would be a village too far, so quick re-routing meant we headed back up to Dunton, down to Tadlow and back into Ashwell via Abington piggots. The weather by this point was spoiling us, so in addition to a howling freezing wind it gifted us with some stinging icy rain too, delightful

So a slightly abridged 32 miles @ 16.5 - and we still have yet to do the holy grail village of Campton........maybe it will be 4th time lucky!!

Thanks all for some good company on another testing Sat morning. Good to see the new boys Pete and Bob too - hope the coffee in the rhubarb was good !
