Sunday 3 October 1993
Afternoon ride: Torbryan
Dry start, drizzle later
8 Participants: Neil Ault, Mark Barber (Junior, Devon), Michael Jones, Unknown Rider 1, David Robinson, Eliot Thomas-Wright, Andrew Walker, Charlie Walker
Dave Robinson informed us at Torbryan that the previous owners of the Primrose cafe at Lustleigh had taken over an old pub near Ogwell and converted it to tearooms. We saw a pub marked on the map near Ogwell and agreed that we should investigate.

On arrival at Denbury, the sky became overcast and Dave remembered something else about the place: it was near Caton! Michael immediately thought of the Rising Sun Inn near Woodland, and decided to investigate it on the way home.

As we approached we noticed the old Rising Sun signs now showed Rising Sun Tearooms, so we felt sure we were on the right track. Sure enough, there was Roger Olver himself serving teas and cakes from his new premises. It was packed, as you might expect, and very tastefully designed inside. The prices haven't gone down, but neither has our discount: I'm sure we'll be returning again!
