Friday 3 July 1987
Evening ride: Dartington
Sunny
10 Participants: Jeremy Ford, Stan Ford, Paul Hamlyn-White, Richard Hopper, Simon Hopper, Toby Hopper, Gary Johnson, Michael Jones, Mark Morris, Andrew Simmons
A pleasant summer's evening started with the ascent of Bigadon hill. The ritual throwing of chippings halfway up resulted in Gary chipping a front tooth. He compounded this injury on the descent towards the A385 when he assaulted a travellers' truck with his head. Damage to both seemed slight so we continued into Totnes by way of a twisted route through Dartington.

At Brutus Bridge Michael decided to drag Gary off to have his head examined professionally while the rest of us followed the track upstream to the Dart. We took the loop past Dartington Hall and Michael rejoined us at Huxham's Cross for the return journey to Buckfastleigh.
