Saturday 16 July 2011 - Terry's 78 Mile Birthday Bash
At the start of the return journey Matt demonstrated why he is in the cycling club and not the Boy Scouts - a front wheel puncture - no tube, no tyre levers, no pump! Blown up but deflated again after 5 miles we then found that Allan's spare tubes would not fit the deep section rims. Kevin to the rescue with a brand new long valve tube - Matt you owe Kevin for that. Back to the Plough with no more incidents 78 Miles covered and Terry safely home. A grand day out. |

Terry Seanor has set out to ride his age in miles on his birthday each year for the last few years. This year's route saw Terry joined by an "elite" group comprising the Burdekins, Greg Henderson, Alfie Shaw, Allan Taylor and Kevin Chicken for a round trip to Knott End. In spite of the absence of a number of big hitters? (Colin and Malcom being indisposed) the group set off at a fine pace across the Moss. Through Woodplumpton and on to the Toll Bridge where Terry dug deep for the fees. Arriving at the cafe just in time to beat the rush due to the imminent departure of the Knott End carnival procession, Terry refreshed himself with beans on toast followed by a slice of "birthday" cake which dissapeared at some speed.
