19 Mar - Tuesday Ride, Southill

Set off with Tony on a pleasant day, not cold and getting more sunny as we went along. Overtook Mike Stapleton along the way and arrived at Waresley just as most of the others were arriving too.

Nine continued form there, usual route out through Tempsford (level crossing again closed, sixth time out of six), Blunham and round to Southill and the favourite tea shop. Quite full inside so we sat outside, marginally warm enough except for Sarah with her poor circulation. Relief provided by the waitress in the form of a hot water bottle for her!

Continued back through Biggleswade and Dunton, then straight on to Shingay and the A1198. Took the short cut onto the old A603 road, missing out the roundabout.

60 miles.
