Moira Posted April 15, 2022 Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 An early post as I’m out tomorrow. Easter Sunday a difficult one as the one’s that are open are busy . So we are going to the Garden Centre at Spring Ridge Crowle . They are open I’ve rung and checked . I have even booked a table in the tunnel where we normally sit for 6 - 8 people at 11.30 to 11.45 . It’s booked in my name Moira from Saracen’s cycle club so if you get there before me you can bags the table. Barry /Steve we will be going out via Priest Bridge then past Philpott Towers so Christine we can pick you up from home no excuses Alan can drive there to meet us . We will go out via Bishampton. 9.30 am TB 🚴♀️🌹🚴 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve T Posted April 16, 2022 Report Share Posted April 16, 2022 Thanks Moira, see you at PB/FH area around 10, a la Lancs Lad! I assume you'll be coming down FH Lane. Jen may also possibly join us on 4 wheels. PS I'm amused to note that I'm viewed as a Newbie, after 57 years on the bike!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie Posted April 16, 2022 Report Share Posted April 16, 2022 I'll be there. Might start from home and then go back over timberhonger to home 😬. I'll see how brave I'm feeling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julie Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Happy Easter everyone 🐣🐣🐸. The frogs for Dave. He'll know why 😆. I decided to risk it and leave the van at home. On my way to TB I was surprised by a deer jumping across the road 2ft in front of me. A nice start to the morning. Tim, moira, John and me set off 3 of us wearing shorts hoping for a warm day. We weren't disappointed. We went on an Easter egg hunt then picking up Dave, Barry and Steve on the way. No Easter bunny to be seen though. There was much discussion on leg colour for those wearing shorts and it was decided that John had the whitest legs anyone had ever seen. Sorry John 🙈. On arriving at the cafe we decided to sit outside. Where numbers of riders increased significantly. Chris Paul arrived, followed by Chris and Alan. Nice to see Alan out on the bike. First ride post op 👍. Jen arrived in her car to join us and Roger and Chris turned up too. It did get rather noisy. The sheep were nearly as noisy, but not quite. There's a pic of them later including a pile of what some of us thought was poo (well I did at least). Service was much improved and the cakes we had were really nice. We all started out together with Dave leaving us shortly after the cafe for home. Barry and Steve turning off at himbleton. The rest of us carried on up a really big hill at which point Chris, Christine and Alan went straight on with the rest of us turning left. John left us somewhere closer to TB leaving Chris, Roger, Moira and me to slog our way over the lickeys. Luckily I got a helping hand from Chris. It was a hard climb home. Moira left us at the top of the Lickeys and after telling Chris and Roger to leave me I'm glad they didn't as a small technical problem arose as we got to Northfield which would have stopped me in my tracks. Thank you guys for sorting it and getting me home. Although just turning the corner for home I got a puncture. There's a call out to my dad to mend it. I bet he's thrilled! I cant go without mentioning, as Moira pointed out, that we took 6 scalps. Always a good feeling. See you all next time hopefully. Sorry not sure why that pic of the love birds has popped up here but it is a nice one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moira Posted April 17, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 You little fibber I didn’t tell them to leave you .🤥 A lovely ride always better when the sun is out 🤩 I did get a bit of glare off the back of John’s very white legs at one point 😂 .

Julie Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Haha no. You've read that wrong Moira, it was me who asked them to leave me not you! 🙈 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisP Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Roger and I set of at 10 o'clock as usual and took the back lane down to Droitwich. Having passed through Tibberton we decided to continue onto Spetchley before turning to Crowle as we thought we might be first there. NO surprise to find the gang already tucking into tea and cakes. Nice to have such a good group to ride back with. For those who managed the trip to Bewdley the other week and met Terry who popped into the cafe to say hello, I've found an interesting advert from the club past ie. the 50's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
