Six of us enjoyed the finest day so far this year following the routes from Llangollen recommended by Kev C’s friend Pete, who was unfortunately not well enough to join us. Kev C, Chris Gregory, Rob Jones, Steve Cox from the Crewe, Eleanor and I made up the party. This is Rob enjoying one of the green lane descents. Of course the only way to gain the height for this was up steep climbs, but even these were pleasant on such a fantastic day with the daffodils out.
Kev C and Rob chatting as they climbed out of the valley for the third time. We were slightly envious of a gang of downhill riders who were getting a lift back up the hill in a pick-up truck. But we agreed that we felt much more virtuous. Especially Eleanor, who ended up on the front of the group as we crested the final climb, where a farmer had pulled up his tractor to compliment her on leading five blokes!
