Beacon A run Kenilworth
Today's A run went without incident apart from the sudden torrential downpour timed perfectly to clobber us about a mile from the cafe stop. Cherry Tree Cafe in Kenilworth continues to provide excellent food at cheap prices (I haven't seen so many full english breakfasts on a club run before!)
Anyway...today's rider list is as follows..
Ian Taylor
Keith Adcock
Andrew Hornsby
Laurence Cooley
Omar Hussein
Lee Marrow
Matt Regan
James Tait
Toby Draper
Gareth Cadd
Andrew Clayton
Thanks to everyone for coming along and providing chat and occasional shelter from the wind.

The B Run to pershore was a little 'damp' at times especially coming out of pershore! Memorable conversation of the day was Paul Johnson's utter surprise that neglegee's are so uncommon now? (you'll need to ask him) coffee#1provided great food and coffee as usual, special thanks to George lazenby for his mechanical skills. Thanks to everyone for the great company. Riders were

Steve, huge thanks for yesterday, cracking ride and to everyone else for the company.
I was hoping that the 100 miles would be no great problem (and it was remarkably uneventful in comparison to my woes last year) and my biggest concern was Weatheroak Hill.....right on both accounts there..... and glad I stuck to only the 1 pint as I fear I may have "revisted them" if I had stayed for a cheeky second.

100
Thanks Steve, Andy and everyone else on the ride. A great day out despite being out of my comfort zone on occasions. When we got to the pub I couldn't even get off the bike, had to lie it down and Paul was on hand to help me step out of it. However, after a beer and a little walk up Weatheroak was able to ride home at a reasonable pace. 105 miles and a 12.6 average so quite happy with that. I will have to think long and hard about next year, but who knows. Thanks again everyone.
There is not a hill that is to steep to walk up.
