Cat 6 run led by Bob B
Ten Wheelers set off from Allenburys for The Village Tearooms at Hatfield Heath on a pretty raw morning. Nothing eventful on the way out via Wareside, Babbs Green, Much Hadham before avoiding the flooded road at Hadham Ford and heading back towards Widford to take Bourne Lane to Perry Green, Green Tye and Spellbrook. A loop round New Barn Lane and Hatfield Broad Oak saw us arrive in good time for refreshments at café.
The return run via Sheering, Back Lane, Sawbridgeworth, Allens Green etc would have been equally uneventful but for Captain Bob and his flash new shoes! Having failed to affix his right hand cleat tightly enough, it became impossible to unclip and several riders assisted him in getting his foot out of the shoe (still stubbornly attached to the pedal). After a considerable delay matters were restored to normal and the group were able to continue. No punctures or other mechanicals!
