Went out to the gate as Tinkerbell and Silverfox arrived. Precisely at 9 we set off and met the Phatboy as we headed into the Park by the Woolston Cut. We then travelled posse style to the bridge at Ferrymead. The track along the towpath is getting rather overgrown. We decided it was already warm and cruised up St Andrews stopping once in the shade for a quick regroup. Finally arrived at the bottom entrance to John Brittain where I led off. Hot work all the way stopping in the shade of the trees at the top. Welcome relief from the sun and a little breeze to help cool off. We decided to head straight up Broadleaf Lane for the shade. Topped out at the aerials before taking our own lines down. The rocks caused some discomfort for my ribs and back but I survived even if it was not the fastest trip down. Phatboy and Dozer led off down Greenwood. Everyone had a pretty good run down but it certainly was not my best. We then rode the road section of Godley until we climbed up the farm track so we could do the fist section in reverse. Quite a quick run here although I was starting to struggle. Down Ct Thomas at various speeds with the boys all waiting for me after the tricky climb. We then finished the down in quick time. A stop at Dot Com and a discussion on possibilities for this years trip. Then homeward along the road we headed. Overall a good ride although it was hot!!
