Everyone present agreed to downgrade the ride to a Stage 2 ride so that Kane could join in. We managed just 3 miles to our first stop, the Hill House tearooms at Landscove where Joe's mother welcomed us with surprise and generosity. One of the predicted "beefy" showers kept us in the greenhouses for ten minutes, then we covered another 2 miles to the next stop, Broadhempston play park. It took Joe and Kane at least 15 minutes to try out all the equipment on offer, so the final sprint to Fermoys had to be at a slightly faster pace.

Orange juice and cakes had to suffice as they'd finished serving lunches when we arrived. We found time to explore the Bird of Prey centre that we'd never noticed before, then headed off through Ipplepen to explore the interesting tracks around Orley Common. It really would be quite easy to get lost in this network of interconnecting paths!

The final leg of the journey took us through Staverton and Abham. I think Kane was glad to get home, but very pleased that he just achieved the twenty miles he had planned.
