I'm coming & a friend of mine said she'd like to join us too. Andrew also said he'd be out - hope so anyway as he has my back wheel.

Once the initial confusion of Ron's absence subsided, Andrew, Lucy, me & my friend Nicola set off around the vale. A tad wet to start & blustery throughout. Was it 28 miles you said Andrew? We turned left after Treoes, through the lanes, straight ahead at the lights in Cowbridge, into Llan something, with a nice climb out. On to Llantwit for a cuppa & home along the coast. Nothing broke today & the lovely Andrew did a sterling job on my back wheel where Halfords miserably failed. Thank you again bike mechanic extraordinaire. It's who you know, you know...

you will have to do without me again next week, but Tom taught me one of his old skills, dropping bread crumbs around the course, I will call in Greg's in the morning and get a few stale loaves and drop crumbs around Llan something. PS I never know where I'm going! Don't forget it's the "Big One" on the 31st, we will need four loaves for that one.

Please define "Big One" so we can mentally prepare.
