Let me think, five started off from Tardebigge in our group, Moira, Gordon, Phil, Alan and me. Gordon turned off at Inkberrow to do a shorter ride.  The rest of us then picked up Barry near Hillers.  It was a nice day, but a bit breezy, the wind slowly got stronger as the day went on.  Took a pleasant root to Long Marston, where we went to Espresso Barn cafe, I hadn’t been there before, it seemed very nice, once they sorted out exactly what we wanted, we seem to have a lot of problems at cafes just lately, is it us or is it them ?  Anyway Chris P. turned up then, and that was the full compliment for today.  On the way home Moira nipped through the traffic lights 🚦 on red to try and get up the hill first (that’s an ex-copper for you) which she did.  We all go home safely after bashing into that headwind.  And that was today’s ride.      🚲

Well done to John for the new cafe.

Went there many years ago when it was a lean to  on the side of the antiques barn.

Just remember it being raining and the roof leaking.

Did a round about trip via Stratford and Ilmington getting to join the others before they had finish eating.

Dropping down from Ilmington looking out across to Stratford and down to Quinton.
