Cycling Report for 11th January 2024

Despite a freezing day, 10 of us turned out from Draycott Memorial Hall in sunshine to head carefully over to Cheddar with an eye out for icy patches. A steady ride on the Strawberry line took us to Winscombe where luck favoured us as there was room inside the Pantry cafe, rather than the other larger one in the old HSBC site. (Axbridge tearoom closed until March.)

Warmed and fed we went on through Loxton and down to East Brent, going up the aptly named Hill Lane, pausing for breath to admire Ralphs Wood before going down to Brent Knoll and a warming lunch at the Fox and Goose.

After a leisurely meal we went out into the cold, and a standard run back to the start, (not all started from Draycott) for a nominal 28 miles ride.

Thanks to all for emailing, it makes planning stops easier, and to the midcourse navigation team (Linda and Paul) for keeping us on track.
