We passed a “Road Closed” sign at the start of Old Totnes Road, but it wasn’t actually closed at all. We continued up Green Lane, down the track to Riverford (past the traveller camp) and then on into Staverton. We spent five minutes playing in the park where Ash declined to do the back flip off the swing that some of his “friends” had suggested.

Continuing to Broadhempston via the lower lane and the school we had some Frisbee fun in the park there for ten minutes. They really wanted to ride Beaston tonight, so after detouring around Ron Greet we took the track, accompanied by some other cyclists that were going the same way. The track was quite muddy in places but there were no real lakes today.

To finish the ride we returned via Landscove and Green Lane, getting home for 1.20. There was a trampoline social after the ride until 3.30.
