Saturday 20th November, 9:30 B ride to Heightington (Nothing Bound brewery taphouse)

I'll lead a Saturday ride to Heightington - Nothing Bound brewery taphouse departing the Black Horse at 9:30.

Nothing Bound taphouse (open from 1pm) is in a converted barn and a lovely setting to sample some of the quality beers on offer.

There will also be food from Forty Hamburgers (Dry aged, freshly ground grass-fed Hereford beef burgers).

Route something like this: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/38043619
We'll probably have a breakfast stop on the way either at Lord Mortons or Broomfields of Holt

Sounds interesting, Matt

What distance are we talking, and what time do you expect to get back to the Black Horse?

A late change of line up meant we started with the following riders:

Matt Hale (L)
Stuart Jones
Si Turner
Andy Wrightson

We set off, deciding on a coffee/cake stop at Broomfields, where we bumped into Marianna who was just leaving. Nice café... recommended.

After tackling the slightly lumpy middle section, we arrived at Heightington ready to fill our bellies with beer and burgers. The quality was of the usual high standard and might even have some IPA converts 😉

One unfortunate incident to note on the way back... Andy went over just outside Churchill and landed heavily on his wrist...hope it's Ok, well done for riding home one-handed!
