The weather may not have been perfect today but there was a very nice atmosphere on the ride – Callum O’B was full of enthusiasm and rode excellently. We started out along Colston Road, stopping briefly to chat with Michael’s relatives at Colston, then took the cycle path to Huxham’s Cross and the road to Staverton Bridge and the riverside path. We then took the woodland path past the imaginary swamp-piranhas and spent an enjoyable time in the park playing Frisbee, rocket and the swings as well as eating chocolate.

We returned home along the usual route past Abham and Caddaford, hitting each other if we saw a double digit registration plate on a passing car. We finally arrived home at around 12.50.
