Vitamin D ride Sat 8 Jan

Well it was actually the bacon butty run but may be I ought to change the name to be more inclusive i.e. vegetarians very welcome for egg butties.

It was great to see a bit of sun and have an easy ride after a week back at work leaving and returning home in the dark. Three of us (was gong to be five) met at ten at the Crematorium on the Ridge having just seen off the overnight rain. I make no apologies for often leaving Hastings on the same lanes: Stonestile, Cottage, Seddlescombe, Goatham, Watts Palace, Adams, Northiam. I was more than ready for a breakfast in a bap but was very disappointed to find the Northiam cafe closed for refurbishment but it is due to reopen under new management on 10th January. We decided to retrace Adams Lane then cut across to Battle via Wattlington. The cafe opposite the Chequers was also closed but the Coffee Lounge at the bottom of the High Street did us well. The lanes were wet and muddy but it was great to get some fresh air and try and do regain a bit of fitness.

Saturday 15 Jan I am likely to be doing something else but if plans change I will edit this post.

Sunday 16 Jan I aim to be at the Harrow at 9.oo to depart by 9.10am as usual.
