A record turnout for the first Friday Broad Oak ride of the season . All the usual suspects were there plus a first time appearance from Steve Butcher and a rare guest appearance from Dave HH (coming all the way over from Eastbourne). This made 10 riders in all. As planned we more or less stayed together until Rye and then it was each rider for himself. We ended up in two groups with the bulk of the riders in one big fast group and myself Derek and Steve B in a slower group. Stonestile lane was nice and dry and didn't seem too hard, Dave was quite pleased with his performance up the hill as he is still regaining lost ground from his broken collar bone back in the early summer. Some of us headed straight over to St leonard's where we met up with Chris Parker for a kebab. This was followed by a few drinks in Ba Blah where we celebrated a great start (weds and Friday) to the winter night ride season.
