Club run reports - 9th October

Category 6 ride led by Danny Hood

Eleven of your finest gathered at start HQ, ready to push themselves above and beyond the humanly possible. 'Who dares wins' would sum up this lot to perfection. 

Despite throwing in a few curveballs on the route, try as I could, I couldn't lose these highly tuned athletes. Their grit and determination to carry on made me proud to be British.... A feeling that's been sadly missing of late (we're going to hell in a hand cart), but that might just be me.

The Cafe Mocha, or Mess as us in the elite special forces know it, was packed out when we arrived. Never seen it so busy. However as is the norm for this establishment, they had us fed and watered in excellent time and all for a very reasonable price.

No problems on the return leg... or so I thought. Coming into Widford I was caught up by Graham who informed me we'd lost him in Bishop Stortford, and he had only just managed to catch us up. Counting was never a strong point, but as we in the SAS know, no-one gets left behind, not for the whole trip anyway.

Was nice to see some familiar faces after a long time and the weather rocked, so all in all a very enjoyable day.

I bet you can guess where I'm sitting, writing this report from.....

....the sofa with a cold beer on the go. Like a normal person.!!
