Moira Posted December 11, 2021 Report Share Posted December 11, 2021 The forecast looks good tomorrow and warmer than it has been for the last couple of weeks so we should get out . I’m planning on going to Springridge (Crowle) yes John I do like it there despite the slowish service. Now John won’t be riding tomorrow but is hoping to meet us at the cafe by car . I will be going out via Priest Bridge Barry and out past the Philpott’s house so hopefully they will join us too 🤞🏻( have a day off from painting Alan 😝) 10 am TB 🚴♀️🌹🚴 I must say a big Happy Birthday 🥳🎉🎂 to Chris P who will 75 yes 75 years young tomorrow. I heard he was planning on doing 75 miles on his 75 th birthday tomorrow so good luck with that but as you and Rodger have been braving the harsh weather conditions I’m sure it will be a breeze .

Lancashire Lad Posted December 11, 2021 Report Share Posted December 11, 2021 See you PB/ FH lane. Also. Happy 75th Birthday for tomorrow and Best wishes Chris. 75 miles in your condition, you will be at the cafe before us. A Garmin check will be carried out to confirm. We might even buy you a drink?

Moira Posted December 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2021 I made it out after wimping off the last couple of weeks . Starting from TB Me obviously Bev , Mick , Leigh and Richard we picked Barry up en route . A nice warm day all going well until I had a rear puncture again as had one on Thursday too .Oh no John not out so luckily Deputy Mick took pity on me and did the lion share of putting new inner tube in. While this was happening Dave M joined us . We then set off again and decided to cut it short due to my puncture delaying things but really as we all had a bit of Alan Philpott’s disease CBA . So we turned left at the end of North Piddle Lane and went the quick way to the cafe. Just as we got there the Philpott’s arrived having walked there very impressive Alan deciding it was better to walk than got the bikes dirty !!! Initially it was full in the green house area so we had to sit outside but then a table came free so we made a run for it and managed to squeeze 13 chairs around the table as Ivor , John and Ann arrived in there cars then Roger not Rodger 😝 and Tess came without the Birthday Boy Mr P who apparently has a cold . On his birthday too what a shame. We had a little cake with candle for you and a card too as the photos below show. Hopefully Tess will deliver your card to you. Unfortunately Julie couldn’t make it as she has a cold too . Couldn’t resist the last Photo of John in his hat 🤪 What a motley bunch we are. A nice day and a nice ride .

ChrisP Posted December 12, 2021 Report Share Posted December 12, 2021 Thank you to the motley bunch for the birthday greetings. Haven't spent the weekend as intended. Looks like a good turnout weather was kind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie Posted December 12, 2021 Report Share Posted December 12, 2021 What a great turn out. Even those who couldn't get out on their bikes, I'm impressed. I'm sorry I couldn't make it. I haven't been able to get out much the last few weeks so was looking forward to it. Glad you had a good ride despite the puncture. Hopefully see you all soon x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alp Posted December 13, 2021 Report Share Posted December 13, 2021 It took 1 hr 10mins to walk home and not a bike to clean. For those who heard the tale about the sheep that was stuck in the fence, the farmer had moved the whole flock and must have freed her.
