Old Gits go to Burnham on Sea 26

First Tuesday in the month is the day when the Old Gits go across the Levels to Burnham on Sea for a change of scenery to the Banwell area of North Somerset.  Meeting up at the beach huts on Weston prom, 14 old boys set off through Uphill nature reserve and over to Lympsham, Brent Knoll and Mark before going through Highbridge marina to Burnham. That is where a late arrival caught us up,


That time of year

Missed out on a good photo opportunity today.  Normally we go to Wetherspoons for refreshments but we heard today that their kitchen was 'not functional' so an alternative had to be found.  Someone knew of the Chatterbox, a small cafe off the sea front.  We took over, nearly filling half the seating area. First time we have been there, not too bad at all, reasonable service.  The only was, I didn't take a photo of the event.  Thought about it 1 mile from home.  Called in the Westcroft Egg Farm so some of the Old Gits could stock up on their eggs.  Took this seasonal photo outside.  Bah humbug!


Nearly home

Back on the cycle track over the River Axe at Brian and through Uphill nature reserve and marina.  Took this picture of some of the group making their way along Links Road in Uphill


Good ride today, the weather was fairly kind again.  Have to say, we have been fortunate over the last few months.  Tagged up 27 miles today.
