A very hot morning turned a planned push towards Venford into an easy spin to Holne, with a pause in the shade near Bear Wood before retreating to the café garden for lunch. The day’s mood was set by the heat, and it finished back home with a relaxed stint on Minecraft.

A brief social: after computer games at Crofters, the evening switched to badminton at Ashmoor Leisure Centre, an hour on court from 8.30.

A relaxed ride to Endsleigh Garden Centre via Harbourneford and the back lanes was defined by lunch choices: two of us paid over £9 in the restaurant while Jude held out for a Co‑op Meal Deal in Ivybridge. We looped home shortly after, switching to the B3213 for the return.

A simple early badminton session at Ashmoor Leisure Centre from 8.30 kept the club moving off the bike. The brief report notes the attendance list was incomplete, so more may have played than recorded.

Landscove Garden Centre
Sun, 27 May 2018

With a damp start and Dillan not keen to ride, the day became a relaxed off-bike social: Minecraft in the morning, then a drive to Hill House Nursery at Landscove for afternoon tea—cheese scones included—before more Minecraft.

After a late start we played Minecraft for twenty minutes, then headed to Ashmoor for an hour of lively badminton. The best part: Will said he’ll join us for a ride a week on Sunday.

An easy morning ride to Dartington centred on coffee and cake at the Cider Press Centre’s Venus Café and a few photos. Back home, the ride’s low-key mood continued with a shared Minecraft session.

An easy, sociable evening that moved from Minecraft and a check of Jude’s maths paper to badminton at Ashmoor Leisure Centre, where friendly games turned competitive: Michael beat Jude, then Will beat Michael. We ended hot and tired after a very enjoyable session.

Bovey Tracey
Sun, 10 Jun 2018
23 mi 360 m 360 m

A straightforward morning ride centred on choices: urged towards Ilsington, we sided with Dillan for Bovey Tracey and coffee at the Guild of Craftsmen. A craft fair in Mill Marsh Park then split us—Jude rode back to Ilsington while we looked round, and we headed home in rising heat.
