A new addition to the Trekker’s route collection; and arguably its’ most scenic to date. Today’s eight tandems and single solo, leisurely wound their way around the market town of Stamford Bridge. Historically more famous for battles than for bikes, Trekkers enjoyed a disused railway viaduct, off-road wooded section, forestry commission landscape and the delightfully named hamlets of Buttercrambe and Skirpenbeck. All before partaking of the obligatory replenishment of spent calories at the Old Station Café.
Quote of the day: “Judith must be a long way back. I can’t hear her!” Alas, she was a mere two bikes away when Keith made the pronouncement. But then I guess the senility is in keeping with his decision to cycle out and back to Stamford Bridge. A mere hundred miles or so.
