10 December - Southill via Sandy - 57 miles

Rode to Waresley with Mike Stapleton.  Eight wanting to go on so took the normal route but didn't turn down towards Tempsford.  Instead continued on to Sandy, using the same cycle paths as recently.

Got my front wheel off the path just after a couple of offset barriers and landed on my left hip.  Okay at the time but sore later.

On to favourite Southill cafe.  Tables set with Christmas crackers so we thought there might be a reservation. Instead they said to take the places and use the crackers.

Continued on via Biggleswade where Sarah left us for the station.  Then back via Shingay-cum-Wendy and across the A1198, cutting the corner to the A603.
