Sunday 3rd May

I headed (on my cruiser) around to Phatboys albeit running 10 minutes late.  Got there to find Mellonfarmer on his fat wheeled bikewaiting and Phatboy obviously tucked up tight in his bed and not able to ride.  The two of us headed down the drive and met up with Dozer as he arrived.  We then went down Kilmore and through Hagley, onto Kilmarnick and hooked up with The Silverfox and Tinkerbell who were waiting patiently.  Straight down the cycleway we headed at a steady clip.  The fatwheel sounding like a swarm of bees all the way.  Onto tuckers at the end and on Canvendish we stopped for tea and coffee at the Cozy Cafe as we still had plenty of time.   Onwards through Styx Mill arriving at the planting at 10.25.  We helped plant nearly 1200 plants before we hopped on our bikes and heading home along the reverse route.  At Kilmarnick Tinks and the Fox headed off while we headed through hagley and then down Armagh.  I peeled off at Madras then ducked down Gloucester to barbadoes then headed home over Waltham bridge and Shakespear Rd.

Good pump both directions but pretty uneventful.
