Friday 15 July 1988
Evening ride: Haytor
Dry / cool
12 Participants: Graham Burge, Richard Burge, Paul Hamlyn-White, Simon Hopper, Toby Hopper, Michael Jones, Rohan Kilty, Paul Ledingham (10, Buckfastleigh), James Miller, Nicholas Scott-Maddocks, Andrew Simmons, Alan Skinner
It was on the way down to the start that Paul intercepted me and asked for a puncture repair kit - Jamie had a puncture and the two were about to try to fix it. Well of course, it took them more than half an hour, by which time we were long gone. We left a message with Faye Skinner, but they didn't quite catch us.

The rest of us undertook an ambitious ride through Ashburton, Birchanger and eventually Haytor rock itself, the youngsters putting on an impressive display of fitness. The dying sunset left a sky that looked as though it was a painting on canvas in a vast range of greys and blues. It is sights like this that make the hills worth climbing.
