Today’s joint ride with Hull based Beech Holme Tandem Club was a winner. 9 Tandems and 7 Solos, lovely sunshine and an extremely cycle friendly cafe at Birkin all made for a most enjoyable day. Yes, there was a bit of a headwind on the way back. That’s probably why many people had double helpings at the cafe. But for most riders, the flat 21 miles near Fairburn were a delight. And why do I say for most riders? Because not content with the 21, Keith and Mike cycled out and back from Huddersfield. I guess that will push their total tally towards the 100. Well done to everyone!!!!
Excellent ride with good friendly people from Trekkers and Hull, one of the Hull members even piloting for us. Special mention to the Birkin cafe people who who so helpful and interested in what we are doing and to Paul for his organisation and careful marshalling at road junctions.
As always it was a pleasure to ride with you all again.
God bless
