MOT day ride

From home to Hertford to Subdury to home

An early morning start to get down to SBW in Hertford before they opened, then a hugely circuitous (my gloved finger must have selected Peterborough by mistake) route to find the Adventure Bike Shop in Acton near Subdbury, Suffolk without success(where do they hide it?) but some good roads and a great cuppa and BLT roll on the Inca Trading Estate. Four and a half hours riding in beautiful sunshine! How lucky because it has been raining ever since.

Blast to Peterborough

The excuse for the trip was having to pick up a parcel from the ridiculously distant PDP depot. The high point of the trip was the handmade sponge cake and cuppa at exotic Sainsbury’s Peterborough, and narrowly avoiding being backed into by someone in the car park. The route back home via Whittlesea and Coates (where I bought my first bike) and March is not that good on reflection. But what a beatuiful day, the temperature heading to 28 degrees on the bike.
