Crisp winter weather made our Christmas Cheer ride all the more enjoyable, although since most of the riders had no gloves we were unable to extend the ride to the Totnes cafes as originally planned. Instead we enjoyed a leisurely spin along Colston Road to Staverton and returned via Abham just in time to see the Santa Special steam train returning to base with loads of happy youngsters clutching their presents. There were free hot chocolates and refreshments all round at Crofters and of course plenty of computer games throughout the afternoon.

Please note: The Christmas Lunch ride that we had planned for today proved too expensive for most of our riders, but we will be happy to arrange some special activities during the Christmas week according to demand.
