Friday 30 June 1989
Evening ride (Buckfastleigh): Chalk Ford
Dull / drizzle
15 Participants: Paul Hamlyn-White, Mark Hedges, Paul Hedges, Catherine Hopper, Simon Hopper, Toby Hopper, Michael Jones, Luke Kudliskis, Marcus Kudliskis, Chris Platt, Dave Platt Snr, Martin Rushworth, Peter Rushworth, Alan Skinner, John Stuart
Within seconds of leaving the Buckfastleigh start, young Alan broke his brake yoke cable and lost the associated bolt. He didn't need his front brake on the way up Wallaford Hill to Cross Furzes, but he was mighty careful on the rough descent from Lud Gate to Chalk Ford. Michael was surprised to discover that the majority of riders, nearly all local, had never ventured as far as Cross Furzes. They were very interested in the route.

Rain was threatening at last, so the direct return through Scorriton seemed appropriate.
