Just a quick report on the ride to the Victoria. As you will have seen from Colins  report, five bikes left the Alma, one with a passenger, and we picked up two more bikes on the way and a couple more joined us at the Victoria.We were a bit concerned when one bike and rider apparently disappeared on the way, but it turned out a front wheel slow puncture caused a quick about turn before we realised what had happened. The food was up to scratch,and after lunch,some made a detour to Andy Tiernans bike shop on the way home,while the rest made their own way back. We were very lucky with the weather and it seems everyone had a good day out. With that in mind , lets have your ideas for places to visit during the next few months so we can carry on riding together. See you in March. Gordon
