This was a surprisingly good ride with a lot of interesting conversation. We rode up the long hill to Cross Furzes, took the track past Hayford Hall to Lud Gate and then descended the track over the open moorland to Chalk Ford. We looked in vain for pigs and piglets but today there were none to be seen.

After taking the stony track to Scoriton we headed home for 9.10, rounding off the evening with some general knowledge, games and music quizzes until 10.30.
