Marizion was on the club calendar so we had no destination to discus or think about on leaving HQ. (although they still left late. Assistant Ed).
The team consisted of Amanda, Ian, Phil 4, Robin, Danny, Fred, Devon Jim, newbie Sam, Ben and Phil 1.
A straight forward route was to taken out through Porklellis, Nancegollan, and Godolphin Cross, where we all took the correct direction. It was a good ride down with the wind behind us and on reaching Marizion the sun came out.
The cafe chosen was the Chapel Rock which some of us haven’t visited before. It was warm and gave us a good view of the bay from upstairs. Amanda gave us the usual critique of the coffee, too hot, instant, too wet, poor aroma, etc. but the food was good, well mine was. We left to take a regular route home, but this time into the cold wind. Ben was our first loss as he wanted to go just a bit further. Off across to St Erth, Hayle, and Connor Downs. Fred wasn’t pullin’ very well after suffering the excesses of the night before and on reaching Praze-An-Beeble decided to take a slightly easier way home, hope you made it Fred. The rest of us carried on up to Black Rock where there was a change of plan as there was plenty of time before the start of the Rugby. Instead of Porkellis the pub at Four Lanes was selected by Robin. Here we left Robin, Phil 4 and Ian. The rest of us carried on home via Stithians.
Home with very cold feet and 54 miles done.
