Sunny February Wednesday

Over 30 of us turned up at Hassop for this ride – which is very impressive when you think how cold its been. Some of us made it far enough along the route through the tunnels to get to the next café … only to find it was closed! Luckily, an ice cream van in the car park offered just what the kids said they needed to warm up (brrr). Once most of us got back to Hassop, the sun was shining enough to make sitting out side the café an option and we watched as children who – only a few minutes previously had been claiming that they couldn’t cycle another any further - ran around at full pelt for at least another half an hour. The chance to have a cup of tea in peace = good result for parents … and almost made the hassle of packing all those bikes onto the car earlier in the day worth it.

Plans for the next ride will be posted here ... as soon as we have some! Maybe something in March, perhaps a cycle round Derwent Water? Open to suggestions...
