Thought we’d try Ellenden Farm Shop , Ellenden tomorrow we’ve been there on a Thursday previously but some time ago . The Beacon use it regularly on a Sunday so it must be okay .

Steve we will be coming down Swanbrook Lane doing a left then first right onto the main road (A422 I think) a right then a left and a right onto Bouts Lane and up to the Ridgeway and down Arrow Lane so see you at the end of Swanbrook Lane maybe be there for 10.20 as we missed you the other morning best to be early you could ride up Swanbrook towards us we’ll be coming in past the Brook Pub . Hope it all makes sense 🤨

Well 3 of us set of from TB me Julie and John we were soon joined by Steve and Barry thank goodness as we had a strong headwind to contend with.

Once at Bidford we decided to do some through and off along the main road luckily for Julie she got the first hill no moaning at all 😝 think she wasted all her breath on asking why she got the hill while on the front just bad timing !!! Or maybe the rest of us knew what was coming up and rotated around. We got along the main road quite quickly doing this well probably not as fast as Mr P and Roger but we can dream 😴 

Landing at the cafe it was really busy. All the tables inside were full and at least a 20 minute wait on tea cakes so we all went for cake instead . I must say there was an impressive selection John and Julie going the biggest ever piece of Victoria sponge ( Johns favourite) ever but think they both regretted wolfing it all down on the way home. I myself went for a more delicate size of chocolate brownie very tasty 😋 

Dave M and then the Philpott’s all arrived in there cars and moaned about being outside albeit under cover. It’s was a bit chilly as you will see from the photos.

We headed off for home hoping for a tail wind all the way on leaving the cafe Steve set off at warp factor speed immediate dropping Julie who had somehow got tangled in some brambles by the entrance !!!  
On realising this we did slow down to let her catch on the train. A very pleasant ride home mainly tail wind thank god.

I think the cake was too much for John as when there was just the 3 of me Julie and John he slowed right down saying his legs were hurting and Julie beat him up the hills so it was John shouting wait not Julie . Well done Julie never seen you go so fast up a hill. John even went the short way home so he must have been suffering.

A few phots below.

Mr P and Roger would be nice to hear about your Sunday rides too xx
