On a fabulous sunny morning we rode fast up Dean Hill, watching some people flying radio-controlled helicopters around the Buckfastleigh horse-racing track. We continued down the hill to South Brent where we bought pastries and doughnuts from the Co-op and ate them in the Play Park.

Michael had planned to go on to Avonwick and maybe even Diptford, but it was 12.00 when we left the park so we returned home along the main road to the Edeswell viaduct. The owners of Edeswell Farm house under the viaduct must be very fond of poultry as the field beside the river was absolutely full of geese and chickens.

We continued via Rattery and down Pennywell hill, arriving home by 1pm. There were some interesting games of Modern Warfare 3 after the ride until 2.30.
