Sunday 2nd May

The day after Mellonfarmers coming of age party. Gosh did I have fun there. A hoot and the good thing was I did not have to get up early as we had a planting day planned. Bugs, Dozer and Silverfox hooked up at mine about 11.30 and we headed of to Phatboys. Me on the cruiser. Actually lucky to make it alive as Dozer was trying to cut us all off at different corners but he eventually settled. We arrived in good order grabbed the lad who rode Grand Dad and headed down Kilmore. New layout at Barbadoes making it all so much safer for riders. Into town then up Armagh to the park. Shot through here, onto Kilmarnock then right along the rail cycleway. All the way to Tuckers Rd now and first for Bugs. Nice clip. Helped plant 2000 plants then came back in reverse. Even faster I think. Silverfox peeled off at Kilmarnock. Stopped for a Pint at Pomeroys. Bugs and I headed off down Fitzgerald then Ferry before separating. The other 2 headed straight down Avonside before separating. All in all a good ride. Planted a tree for all those who did not make it.
