Perfect weather encouraged us to try another car-assisted ride, this time to the Hennock reservoirs. We parked up in the car park and first rode all around the Tottiford reservoir path, including the far end section that Michael had never previously ridden. We stopped part way round for a "chocolate break" and the youngsters were totally awed by the peace and beauty of the area, the gentle sound of rippling water interrupted occasionally by the call of a duck or the bark of a distant dog.

Continuing along the interesting reservoir path we soon reached the road again and set off along the Trenchford path which had a different style altogether. This brought us eventually back to the car park, and since we needed to be home for lunch we decided to end the ride there and return another day for the longer route that includes the Kennick reservoir.
