When you come over the bridge?
Never noticed a café there - thought there was just a house.

Not sure if the cafe belongs to the home owners or what but they serve a nice brew a have some mint Rocky Road flapjack. It's just a small affair being run from what I assume was a garage. Nice little place to be fair, we go regularly. |

Just read on Facebook that the cafe at the crossing point is no longer the meeting place.
They're working on a new place to meet.
As soon as I read about the new meeting place, I'll post it up on here.

Wonder what went on there then? Possibly realised that it's just too small!? Unless only a few people turn up, I think the two old birds might struggle.. |

Noticed they'd changed it earlier.
Run and Ride is always a good place to start - huge car park.

Bet they are gutted, I like the two ladies who run it and wish them well - think as we were 3 of their first customers I sort of hope they go from strength to strength.

Me and Bob got our tickets for this yesterday - who else is going? still no idea about the route - if it's the Donkey though I probably won't do it - they've got my money though so that's ok. Just a bit fed up of the Donkey.
Yes, it's looking like the Donkey. Oh well, see how it goes.

Taken from Facebook
Tomorrow, we will have a gazebo set up on the grass by Swinnerton Cycles - WS15 2UQ
Please meet here at 10am if you wish to take part in the ride. We aim to set off around 10.15/10.30am.
We will be selling raffle tickets if anyone is still yet to buy some.
The raffle will be drawn at the end of the ride. (Anticipating this will be about 3pm latest taking into account the riders who are new to the trails)
We are planning to buy some refreshments (pop, cakes etc) that we will be offering in exchange for a charitable donation. (If anyone is a keen baker and would like to offer any cakes etc please feel free 😊)
