Mid Week Ride 16th January 2019

From Bob D.

Eight riders set off from Orsett spot on 10am which was unfortunate for the ninth John K who was a couple of minutes late and didnt catch up until the cafe stop.Chris M is on holiday this week which is probably why we left on time as Chris is notorious for arriving about 1003 so normally we never leave without him if we know he is coming which is almost always.We were soon split into small groups of twos and threes which worked out fine as everyone found a pace to suit them and all arrived at cafe within a few minutes of each other.Weather was still mild but strong wind made made the going a bit hard work for those of us not as fit as we should be.Homeward bound was a lot easier with a following wind and some of us met up again in Orsett for final chat before leaving for home.Long range forecast for next week is for some wintry conditions so may need to review before setting out next Wednesday.
