A low-key club social saw us drive to Plymouth for a friendly round-robin at Tenpin, six games so everyone played everyone. Shared desserts at Pizza Hut rounded it off, and we got home later than planned.

Jude’s first club ride was meant to be gentle, but Dillan and George led him up the steep climb to Holne, which he conquered. After the café, we tried Tao’s Gallant Le Bower track—muddy at first but now blissfully gate‑free—and a harmless spill in the Park rounded off the day.

A relaxed social evening moved from pizzas at Pizza Hut in Plymouth to competitive air hockey at Tenpin. Dillan beat Michael, Michael beat George, and Dillan expected to beat George too—only for the result to surprise him.

A nostalgic spin through familiar lanes to Ashprington was defined by the now-tarmacked path to Totnes, fast, smooth and full of Dart views. Along the way came a veteran’s tale of a starting pistol for a dog and, at Morrisons, jam-laden doughnuts that tested John’s resolve.

The younger members spent the evening playing Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance, while John and Michael planned the club’s 2017 Easter Tour to North Cornwall.

Tao led a day built around exploring the newly completed Templer Way, with a first ride over the A38 bridge and its quiet, leafy approach to Newton Abbot. Mud by Bradly Manor meant a river rinse before a sunny detour through Ipplepen.

The youngsters spent the entire games evening on the PC network, playing Forged Alliance from start to finish.

With rain set in all day we shelved the ride for badminton at Ashmoor Recreation Centre, turning it into a relaxed social. A highlight was Michael’s new Nikon delivering sharp indoor shots without flash; back at Crofters there were the usual computer games.

A games evening centred on Forged Alliance, with the youngsters playing for most of the night; we rounded things off with a music quiz, which Dillan won with little effort.

A cold run to Widecombe was redeemed by the Café on the Green’s wood‑burner, thawing fingers despite extortionate prices. Jude recovered after feeling ill on Ausewell Hill, and the group got home in good time.

A quiet social where Dillan and Jude spent the first half on PC games, then rounded off the evening with a music quiz.

The report is very brief: the youngsters spent the evening playing various games on the PC network. No further details are given.
