We rode with good speed along Colston Road on a fabulous sunny morning took the cycle path to Dartington and continued along the path to Totnes weir, where we were sad to see that trees had been cut down. The youngsters all climbed a tree further along the track near Totnes, just for the camera!

We rode up the main street but found that the lower café by the supermarket was closed with all the chairs and tables stacked up. Was it closed permanently? We briefly met one of our older members from Paignton, Dave Robinson, who chatted with us before we continued to the top of the town. Here we found the Totnes Food Market which takes place on the third Sunday of each month. Zac and Ryan went immediately to buy some spicy wraps and Callum O’B bought a sausage roll. Sadly nobody was interested in the café today.

We headed down past the castle and up Barracks Hill to Dartington. Callum O’B was feeling quite tired now so we decided not to return via Rattery, instead taking the main road to Charlie’s Cross and then the track to Hole Farm. We returned along the lane past Caddaford, getting home for 1.35.
