Not sure it was quite as grim as Ed described at the start? A bit scrappy for sure and definitely could have done with a ride leader who knew the route, but thanks to Ed for keeping us on track until we parted ways. Thanks to Arducius for leading us in for the last 20 miles.
Purposeful pace, one deceptively tough climb, a few fast descents, a bit too much wind, poppies, good company and fine choice of pub at the end on the river.
Hope dicki made it back OK - not sure my legs would have been up for cycling back?
