As is now traditional for Saturday, its going to be glorious today, nice on Sat arvo and grotty on Sat morning ! Think we all deserve some sort of hardriders cup !!

So, sort of continuing with the reverse theme, tomorrow is the reverse of two bridges - except the reverse way is our normal way round !

Ashwell-Old Warden-Cardington-Cople-Mogerhanger-Everton-Eyeworth-Ashwell

Going up Everton hill also means that anybody mad enough to want to do the hard riders TT can have a practice down Northfields at the end of the ride......

See you in the morning

    No guest navigator this week?
    I was looking forward to 3 times around the TT course as practice for the hard riders

    See you in the morning!

    No guest navigator so luckily we can avoid 3 times down northfields or an even more exciting Shingay/northfields combo !

    A select bunch out this morning for a random version of two bridges. Tough start into the 'breeze' - spring had definitely not sprung today !!

    A road closure near old warden meant that we had to use our expert navigator Adam to skilfully circumvent us back onto the correct road. A howling northerly meant a grovel down to Cardington before we finally turned the corner for the long awaited tail wind.

    After a very long train stop at blunham we zoomed up Everton hill and then back to Ashwell via the Wrestlingworth tower and then northfields.

    Once again TT Emma appeared out of nowhere and just as Bob and Pete thought they had it in the bag a flourescent jet wizzed passed! None of us were fooled by the I'm sick cough as the top of the road....

    So 40 miles @ a shade under 17 - good workout, feeling it in the legs now !!

    Cheers alll for a great ride
