I've got to say (I never got her name) that I'm still seriously impressed, having watched, how well the lady on the 1150 handled her bike and how effortless she made a lot of it look.
My hat is off to you, if I can master mine half as well I'll be very happy.
Thank you, John...
It might have looked effortless but in some of the ruts I was not sure if I would make it through in a vertical position...
Here are my pics now (although as we have been so many, you must help me out with the names, sorry...
)
At the end of the first byway - not sure who it is in the photo but they hadn't noticed the sign apparently...
Our run was not the only one of the day
Alton Barnes White Horse
Out came the refreshments - Gail, Rowan & msgs1200 (left to right)
Jezza and Clive, our spiritual leader, counting his sheep... 7 to 8 were missing...
So a new sweeper had to be appointed - Rowan & Gail
At Woodhenge we were all reunited - phew!
Just in case you are interested what the place is all about
Entering Salisbury Plain - funny that everybody avoided the puddly shortcut...
You can find all sorts of things on the Plain - tanks, UXOs, top boxes...
7cuero
Hurry up, boys, I don't have all day... Daniela ready to go...
And another one of our countless breaks at Devizes White Horse (near Roundway)
Hind legs and tail...
Then another easy peasy byway...
Bakerman taking the sensible route
But for most of us it was too late - there was no turning back in those ruts...
Approaching the Ridgeway from Avebury we had to climb a chalky hill - msgs1200 thought he'd rather have a quick nap before tackling the obstacle...
Hope you made it home ok, Martin! Don't forget to take your Arnica every hour...
Clive, thank you very much for another great day out!
Hope to see lots of you on
Thursday!
