Thorpe perrow the destination for the A ride on Saturday. Along with myself we had James, G, Kev N, Stu, John S, Dave C, Ian H and a welcome return of Ian R who'd been recovering from a broken collarbone. Pleasant autumn conditions meant a brisk pace which meant arriving at the cafe shortly after 12 just before the lunch time rush. We were leaving not long after one to tackle the only real climbs of the day over to masham and up to grewelthorpe. We got split just before ripon after stu had a flat and never regrouped despite getting in touch with the rest saying they were in boroughbridge. We must have been chasing them without success. Got back to York before 4 with just short of 80 miles on clock which meant I got back in plenty of time to see Leeds rhinos thrash castleford in the super league grand final. Apologies to any cas fans. Won't be out next week sadly so have a good ride.
