Wow - sunshine & light winds forecast for tomorrow, how many times has that happened on a Sat morning recently !

Think it's def a day for the Stewartby classic, so lets do a version of this route. Can go either down or up the hill out of Ampthill, we can decide when we get to Houghton Conquest.......

    Nine of us yesterday morning for the spin to Ampthill and back. Glorious weather, perfect for bike riding, warm and just a light breeze. Shame the same couldn't be said for the terrible state of the roads !

    Had our first mechanical, pot hole related stop just outside Hinxworth, but fixed the problem outside a barn which sounded like the was some sort of funfair going on inside it - very odd indeed ! Mostly plain sailing after that with some tidy riding at a good pace. Even had a cheeky mid ride burn up to see if we could get the Strava segment by Jordans, think we we just outside the top 10 so not a bad effort !

    From there it was a pacy return up Langford hill and a relaxed trundle back to Ashwell down loves lane.

    So 51 @ 17 - thanks all for an excellent morning, really enjoy it :)
