Big thanks to Brendan and Daithi BC for organising a great day.
Fantastic route on nice quite back roads with a bit of everything thrown in.
Things certainly got tough with the downpour and wind as we headed for the food stop but some pacey up and overs got us there just as the rain stopped.

A lovely spread awaited in Bob's bar and believe me,it was very welcome.
Thanks to Marie for the food and Bob for his hospitality.
I felt guilty as Bob handed out teas and coffees and all I did was leave a big pool of water on his floor. Great collection of bikes upstairs on show.

Thankfully the weather was on our side for the return trip and the wind was eventually on our backs which made things easier.

Best of luck to the guys heading to L'Eroica, hope you have a blast.:)
