Apparently they were already at Bridge when I turned-up but I didn't see them. Clearly they were hiding away from the coffee shop when I arrived for a brew, so they wouldn't have to buy me one
Eventually they got fed-up of waiting for me and came to get me
We had a nice gentle run out ... just a very few ice patches to catch the unwary!

you rode straight past us, even though I was waving at you. THEN you went and hid in the corner of the cafe behind the door. Almost like you didn't want to be found.

cheers for today Phil, a nice fresh run with only a few slippery moments on my new tyres. Sorry had to peel off a bit early but jobs to do.
noce run all, no maddness other than being out on the bike in 0 degrees.

Thanks to all the hardy annuals that turned out today
. Thanks to Si' for TEC-ing
. Hope everyone got home safe.
Lotsa laughs and banter, a fry up with two coffee stops and a nice fresh day out with the bikes of around 100 miles where we got to practise a bit of throttle control in places - what's not to like?
.
Atcherly, what's not to like quite so much is the cleaning of the bike and bike clothes afterwards. But that's a small price to pay
Here's to the next one

Was watching the fantastic weather today and thinking of you lot out on this ride. Of all the days in January to go for a ride clearly was a great choice.

You picked some good roads Phil cause I had more slides on the way home (Yarcombe especially) than on the ride.
Thanks all, for a good day.
