Ride report by Doug H
On an overcast but warmer-than-normal day, three Wheelers — Mark, Andy, and Douglas — met at PC. We soon set off towards West Beckham, then on to Baconsthorpe, collecting Ian along the way and heading toward Briston, Stody, and Gunthorpe. From there we rode through Thursford, on to Great Snoring, Barsham, down to Shereford and Whissonsett, and finally to Stanfield for our lunch break at The Old Dairy.
Lunch was great — fast service and excellent food. Our usual chitter-chatter included rare bird sightings in Cromer and the number of Wheelers with a birthday on November 15th. We then decided to head to Algy’s Farm Shop in Bintree for coffee and birthday cake, kindly paid for by Doug.
So off we went towards Brisley, then on to Broom Green, stopping at Bintree Watermill to take in the lovely view. Afterwards, we continued to Algy’s Farm Shop for our second stop — for the birthday coffee and cake — and to check out the recently opened cafe for a future visit.
Then we were off again, and with the sun on our backs, we went via Foulsham, Bates Moor, and Guestwick. Around Corpusty, Andy headed off home. We continued via Saxthorpe and on to Thurgarton; shortly after, Doug headed off to Sustead and back to Cromer, while Ian and Mark returned to PC.
A lovely day’s ride.
PC to PC was 61 miles at an average 15.1mph
