The grey, warm, morning drizzle failed to dampen the enthusiasm of riders as they started to gather in Romsey for the event. The ride limit of 35 was met and we were released in groups of about 8.  As the morning progressed the sun came out and the views on the ride were glorious. Everyone made it to the finish at Poppies yard with no problems en route. The atmosphere at the finish was one of sheer enjoyment and chatter as we partook of refreshments. A highly successful event, thanks to all helpers, particularly the organiser, Jim Probert.
