Finale pic's Brittany

Before the race and introduced by himself - Mohamed. Apart from arranging for Pam's entry to the race he also tried to sell us his house. He is Morocan and could speak perfect French and English, the house had 6 bedrooms, a Granny flat, huge lounge and dinning kitchen, double garage and large garden. All for Euro 199,000.

Sunset departure

A follow on from the MWW Blog. Forgive me if this bores anybody but in a way its to express our thanks (Ian, Maureen, Pam & me) to Simon & Jen for being so kind in letting us stay in their Cottage. Its a fantastic place and the area is great and to get involved in a top class stage race was exiting (and to be beaten on the line). Approx 10 photo's 3 postings!

In illustration of the ride report, here are two or three photos of the foray into Kent. Apologies that too much natter and not enough focus meant no photographic record of those who rode to Occasionally Yours at Lingfield for elevenses!

Ride leader Mike being looked after by his attentive family helpers at the Dorset Arms, Withyham

R&R at Tatsfield Church after the assault on Westerham Hill - and one or two others!

A smile on the face outside the Tatsfield Church Tea House - from here it's all downhill!

A wistful look back at where we had come from - and where we are all going!

Courtyard Cafe & Warnham Lunch

Jeff (on left, potential new rides sec. for the Wayfarers - [Ed]) doing what he said he'd do getting to know you all so you can help take charge of his rides. He's looking for new blood. (don't be put off by the hat that belongs to a pr...t). Also at lunch with half of the bunch and half a sandwich! Write up to follow from some right minded fellow and no doubt some more pictures too!

Just a quick word of reassurance to Andy (C&M Rides Sec), my new duties will be for the Midweek Wayfarers - not C&M. There has not been a coup d'état or palace revolution!! Hope to get to know all the wayward wayfarers soon.

18 July FNRttC

This message is to let the C&M crew (& wider SWLDA) know what they are missing by not supporting Simon's gigantic efforts to do something different. Last nights ride is a typical example. To ride through the night with a full moon bathing the cornfields as we sweep by in deepest Sussex just before dawn is quite something (actually I don't remember Dawn riding).
The reward and achievement of riding up Ditchling Beacon can be quite dramatic especially at sunrise. Last nights view was quite outstanding as was the arrival in Brighton. Congratulations to Simon, its his birthday and to celebrate he provided lovely Champagne on the sea front. A good time was had by all! (and the rain stayed away). Our new rider Adam made his his debut ride.
