Ed's ride to the Bear Maidenhead

A very cold day to be on the bike but none the less a good group gathered at Squires Upper Haliford.

Dave cycled to 11's only as he has had a touch of the flu (takes a lot to keep Dave off the bike), Bob, Irene, Pam, Graham were enjoying a warming beverage when I arrived. Soon followed by Vic, Ed, Liz, Gill and Ray.

Leaving 11's we noticed Alan's bike, he had only just arrived having gone to Bourne Valley GC by mistake, oops.

So off to lunch were Ed, Pam, Liz, Gill, Irene, Graham, Vic and me. As usual in a Wetherspoons food was soon being consumed and warming us through.

A quick group photo outside and off back via the Jubilee river to Datchet and past Liquid leisure with the group turning right for Wraysbury and me heading towards Horton and home. At Poyle the rain started but was only a very light shower, so home in the daylight and dry, 53 very cold but sometimes sunny miles.

Thank all for a very pleasant but cold day on the bike and many thanks to Ed for leading.
