I wondered where the Beacon contingent of the Thurs Tardebigge run had gone to. Sounds like good fun.
(Just checking, that wasn't another displaced Sunday club run was it?)

No, Dave. An extra one. (advertised in advance on here and Facebook)

I'd ask for points to be awarded, but the club run spreadsheet only does Sundays, unless Phil has changed it. :)

What an truly exceptional day, so many happy memories to take from it. It's what riding a bike is all about.

Great route thanks to Andy and terrific company so thanks to everyone who made the day what it was.
