Ride Report - Sunday 4 December 2022

To say today was somewhat gloomy would be an understatement - it was like twilight all day from sunrise to sunset, and bitterly cold.   However, these intemperies failed to deter Tony, Ged, Graham, Ray and Terry from joining me for elevenses at Morrisons, Weybridge.   Disappointingly, their catering arrangements were rather less than optimal on this occasion (a very slow moving queue only to be told there was no coffee available) and I think we will put them on the subs bench for a while!

It was such a revolting day that only Ged, Ray and I were tempted to continue to the planned lunch stop at The Cinnamon Cafe, Windsor.   The cold got to Ray after we had descended Crimp Hill and he decided to turn straight for home and add new gloves to his Christmas wish list, once his fingers had thawed out, that is!

That left Ged and I to soldier on to the Cinnamon Cafe where the catering has never been found to be at all lacking, and where you move through the long queue at remarkable speed!    Refreshed and inspired we rode back to Shepperton at remarkable speed too, and went our separate ways.   Thanks all for your company.
