(Non) Ride Report - Sunday 18 December 2022

 


Yet another bleak and cheerless Sunday (a rare event, the third dud in a row)!    Dire Met office warnings of ice and freezing rain had caused us to move elevenses closer to civilisation (although prices at The Pheasantry could hardly be described as civilised)!   Despite this, my expectations that any other Cheam and Morden riders would be mad enough to brave the elements were low.    Imagine my surprise then when I was joined by no less than Diane, Tony, Simon and Paula!   Well done and thanks all!   Rain began to set in as we sat and chatted and there was understandably no appetite to go anywhere but back home!

For some reason there will be no C & M ride on Sunday 25 December (when the weather will very likely be sunny, dry and mild) but on Sunday 1 January 2023 we will continue our tour of Royal Parks cafes with our traditional first-footing elevenses meet at Colicci Cafe, Roehampton Gate, Richmond Park (all welcome)!

The next 'normal' ride (the first in what seems like a long time) will be on Sunday 8 January and we will hope for better things!

Merry Christmas to all C & M members and thanks for your company during 2022!
