With Captain Pugwash quarantined in the highly infected area of the Peak District, this week’s blog comes courtesy of Michael, who, hopefully, remains one of the few who remains Corona-Virus-Free. It’s a cold morning but the sun is shining bright. The brave, committed and sturdy Knights – nine in total – the only ones yet […]
ContinueWhen The Going Gets Tough….
There are forecasts, damn forecasts and statistics, so what were the odds of the sun coming out today. Given the recent inclement weather, the forecast for Sunday looked borderline but with potential 🎶Sunny Afternoon🎶. With one eye on the weather and mind on rule #9 Pugwash cast a lure to see if anyone was interested […]
ContinueValentine’s Day Ride
🎶Love is in the air🎶 at least a love of cycling as it managed to bring out ten Knights for a ride to Hornsea. Our cafe destination was Lily’s on the seafront, a first visit for the Knights. Weaving our way through town towards the Weel road, stretched the gang out. Once together again, the […]
ContinueOf M’Ice and Men
“The best laid plans of mice and men….” just about sums up this Friday’s ride. Our proposed destination was the Spotted Duck at Fitling. No sooner had the sun appeared “below the yardarm”, warnings of early morning ice were flying about causing some to cancel rather than risk any chance of black ice. The forecast […]
ContinueEverybody Out
Well, not quite everyone, some cried off at the last minute. “🎶Should auld acquaintance be forgot🎶” With strains of singing from “o’er the watter” five MEP’s (Most Excellent Pedalers) gathered at Market Cross before setting out to meet up with another five MEP’s at Manor House. Right from the off, Barry hit the front to […]
ContinueAll Roads Lead to Ulrome
The enticement of a new cafe stop, clement weather and a flat ride brought many out this morning as thirteen Knights assembled at Market Cross. Raymond didn’t have the best of starts, having to repair a puncture before we even set off. Making our way through town to Weel Bridge the group soon spilt as […]
ContinueThe Vintage Jersey Crew
In the absence of the wonderful wordsmith Puggy from today’s ride, I thought I would take on the challenge of the weekly write up. Please forgive the rookie style of writing, especially where routes and roads are concerned-this area of expertise is not my forte (just ask the husband!). 12 strong crew rocked up to […]
ContinueGhosts of Xmas
Today’s route was suggested by Cap’t Pugwash. A mixture of hills early on and flat riding later leading to the Cheese Shop cafe at Howden. The seven Knights gathered at Market Cross included Windy Millar recently returning after injury and “Jacob Marley” with his chain making clanking noises as he dragged himself along, a result […]
ContinuePost Festive Blues
Christmas celebrations over for another year, it was time to work off any excess consumption. Grey skies greeted the “blues” as six gathered at Market Cross including the “long time no see” Dave 💦🏠. With only a vague outline of where we were heading, we set off to join up with the rest of the […]
