Afternoon all, what a lovely day it is . I was out the door for 10 am for a nice little two hour ride before it got too hot. Stopped at the sailing club , half way round to check on our boats and to have a drink. Reminded me how much I am missing sailing and my sailing friends. Think it could be months before we reopen. Other clubs are reopening for social sailing with out rescue boats but our lease with Severn Trent makes this impossible.

There's been a constant stream of traffic outside our place since about 11 am.

Oh what a fabulous ride. Found a new route to our favourite cafe. Many roads we've never ridden before - how did that happen so close to home. Great day out with a good friend.

Check out my activity on Strava: https://strava.app.link/u7sU9VLZD6

Wow. :ohmy: I didn't get far today before I became a puddle of sweat. :sad: I'm waiting for it to cool off, but I won't be doing that distance.

OK - smiles time. I mainly ride with the club pensioners, six of us. The club has 181 members and I reckon I know +/- 100 to at least say hello to.

My mate Dave and I are in the cafe garden. Four other cyclists sat around, two more wander in, one wearing a Chorley shirt. We didn't recognise them. A bit later we were about to leave and decided we should say hello. A put on my CCC cap and walked over to say hello. Chatted a bit then one of the other riders said "I'm a Chorley member as well."

Long story short it turned out four pairs of cyclists sat in the garden all belong to CCC but had never met before. 😀

Just about to leave and two more of the pensioners walked in. More coffee purchased! I've never managed 90 minutes in a cafe before.
