An impressive start to the cycling season as all five participants cycled from home to the start point in Woodford . From there  we cycled  through Mottram and  up the Birtles Hill  ( a bit of a burner was the quote from one of the  participants of a Sportif  ) to our lunch stop at the Harrington Arms in Gawsworth ,where we enjoyed homemade chips and sandwiches with a Blondie for Paul.



 We returned against the wind via Lower Withington and Alderley Edge - a total of 30 .6 miles. Well done to all. Sue Hudson
