Thursday 19th April
Todays ride was to St Pauls Walden and The Strathmore Arms PH for lunch. Ann, George, Peter, Roy, David R, David and Sandra and Frank set off from The Three Magnets (Wetherspoons) Leys Avenue at 10:45 The route out was via Willian, Redcoats along Sperberry Hill then onto The London Road to the Whitwell Road. Our intention was to ride up the side of Hitch Wood but we turned left part way up passing East Hall Farm. We arrived at The Strathmore to find Bridgit and Gill sitting in the sunshine. Mick arrived a little later along with Paul. As always the food was cost effective and good quality. David R left us a little early to do some further miles and then Mick and Paul left. The weather was the hottest day this year 27 Deg It was a good ride apart from Mr P attacking my rear tube. We arrived back in Letchworth covering just over 18 miles with an average of 11.4mph
