Today was Dillan's birthday, so we ran a short ride that took us up through Hembury Woods and then rode over to the Fort where we all agreed that the cutting down of the trees by the National Trust was an act of sacrilege.

We made our way down the slalom track gingerly in the darkness, met Tom at the car park (he had been feeling unwell on the way up) and then rode back to Crofters for 9pm. Birthday cake and hot chocolates were available to all during the enjoyable after-ride social.
