Today was a joint ride containing Mark, Harpo, Steve C, Richard L, Karl, Roy, Geoff and I.
The plan was to do the RR1 route but we then decided on a detour in lap one to attack the KOM on the new St Athan Rd. Mark got it and the top 10 is now full of Oggies!
Back through the lanes to Cowbridge, where we spotted Chris G on his training ride from Aberthin to Costas in Cowbridge! We then went up to Pontyclun and back down the A473, with Mark and Richard doing some strong turns on the front. By now we had dropped Geoff and Harpo was looking after Roy. On the second lap, Steve peeled off and Karl and Richard went straight home. This left Mark and I to get to the café, followed by Harpo and Roy.
Special mentions go to Roy, for a gutsy ride. Richard was also strong, especially as he had been out with the 'Jim Hensons' yesterday!
I have told the Café to expect us next week and they have promised to bake some more cakes for us!
