Ride report by Andrew B
Four riders met at PC on a cold but fine autumn morning for a breakfast run to Binham Parlour. With Mark leading, the three set off on the planned route, stopping at High Kelling to pick up Andrew B as planned. The route took us through Newgate, Wiveton, Glanford, Saxlingham, Field Dalling, Bale and Lower Green.
We arrived in good time for breakfast and were shown to a table that Mark had pre-booked.
All five riders ordered the Full English with different toast/egg options, although one rider ducked out of the Black Pudding! This was washed down by copious amounts of tea and coffee.
Ian A though unable to join us for breakfast, sent us his photo of Binham Priory.
Have enjoyed an excellent and rather large meal it was agreed to cut the route back to PC down a bit! We proceeded through, Wighton, Great/Little Walsingham, The Barshams, Great Snoring, Gunthorpe, Sharrington, Thornage, Hunworth, Edgefield, Hempstead and Selbrigg Pond. Duncan was the clear winner of the climb up from Hunworth, with the author trailing in last! Andrew S cut off for home at Edgefield, Duncan at Hempstead and Andrew B at Selbrigg Pond, leaving Chris and Mark to cycle back to PC.
Overall, a good day’s cycling with fine weather for the time of year.
