We toyed with the idea of riding to the Avon Dam this morning, but Ash correctly pointed out that it had been raining a lot in recent days so the moorland would probably be quite boggy. Instead we rode along Colston Road to Dartington. A female cyclist came up behind us while we waited at the top of Cumming Hill, got off her bike and pushed down it saying it was too steep for her. We smiled to ourselves as we passed her, thinking we probably wouldn't be seeing her again. In fact she passed us again a litte later while we were chatting and she didn't see US again!

We took the cycle path through Dartington to Totnes, stopping briefly at the weir so that Ash and Lawrence could climb a tree. Michael wanted a café stop but for some reason neither Ash nor Lawrence could be persauded. We contented ourselves with a visit to a fudge shop in the main street, then returned home via Barracks Hill and Staverton for around 1.30.
