Sunday 12 January 1986
Day ride (With Torbay CTC): Clyng Mill
Sunny and dry
9 Participants: Steven Bowles, Richard Burge, Steve Hughes, John Iles, Brett Jamieson, Philip Mills, Kevin Presland, Luke Rake, Mark Stott
The run to Avonwick was enlivened by a bumpy, muddy track where Richard once again demonstrated his tendency to part company with his mount. Having met up with the Torbay Section we took the B3210 skirting Ugborough and Ermington, then joined the A379 for a short distance before turning off towards Clyng Mill.

The steep descent to the mill was negotiated without mishap, only to find that our destination was a private residence and the lane was barred by a gate. Undeterred we ate our lunch in a field overlooking the creek, then continued to Aveton Gifford where four or five energetic types decided to return home via Kingsbridge and Torcross. The rest of us made our way towards Loddiswell, then through Woodleigh and Moreleigh where the trio from Buckfastleigh parted company from the group to head home via Diptford and Rattery as the late afternoon drizzle set in.
