Bikes in various states of road-worthiness (or otherwise) were unloaded from cars & trailers: folded bikes with flat tyres, son's bikes lacking front brakes, gears & bells! Bikes surprised to be out after a year lounging undisturbed in garages.

Cycles mounted, walking boots laced, the Hash set off for the Forest Centre. The walkers & the cyclists followed their different routes and all enjoyed the Goldilocks conditions: not too hot, not too cold & not too windy, just right! THANKS RA!

Miscellany of musings

• the carved seats, otters, a swan, a narrow boat, a frog were beautiful
• Knobber never says No to a jelly baby
• we walked near the big windmill thing
• Banger's bike has awesome tyres
• I had a coffee & squeezed in a delicious gluten-free & dairy-free Victoria sponge
• the Count remarked that his back one had never been as hard. Cyclo, noticing a deficiency enquired, "would you like a bit more on the front?"
• Knobber warned, "Beware of the mud" & promptly fell over
