Five of us for the Sunday Club Run this week Andy.G, Rebecca and Self from the Sq. Picking up Muzzy and Neil.S as we made progress from York. Any frost had lifted from the roads by the time we got out to the countryside but you still needed a bit of baggy winter kit to keep the chill off. By the time we got to the top of White Horse Bank it felt like time to take a layer off. However within a couple of miles along the ridge cooler conditions and a headwind had picked up. Once again happy with that baggy winter kit. Clear conditions gave great views of the moors and Hawnby Hill. Muzzy took a right at the bottom of Chicken Bank the rest of us pushed on to Osmotherley. Only to find the cafe closed until mid February. Without that kind of time on our hands we opted for the shop. Found enough to sustain us and consumed our pies and sandwiches in the winter sunshine on benches outside the shop. Near the 'Not a Poo Bin' which makes you wonder about the rest of the bins in Osmotherley.
Over the A19 taking the swift route back via Borrowby, Upsal and Sutton retracing our earlier route in from Kilburn. Back in York at 3.15 with 136 km to the good. Enjoyed the days ride. Always good to be out in such glorious weather and fantastic roads with a few folk who know what a day out on a bike is about.
Enjoy your Presentation Evening unable to be with you. However Rob and Andy can pick up any silver that has my name on it. Two of them should manage don't you think ?
