The forecast was for a chilly 6 degrees with some showers, but it was 8 degrees when we set off with the intention of riding to Dartington and Totnes. The first shower came as we entered Colston road, however. We took shelter, but it was quite heavy and the youngsters were getting cold. Michael managed to persuade them to carry on when it slowed, but it started up again before we got to Colston Farm so we had to turn back.

Typically it stopped as we returned to Crofters and the rest of the morning was dry with sunshine, but the youngsters had already set their attentions on playing Supreme Commander so they played that for the rest of the morning until the club closed at 3pm.
