The Other Sunday Morning Ride

Well us Axe Valley Pedallers can't be said to be coordinated in our ride planning or may be we just have such numbers that we can enjoy the variety of rides. A couple of weeks back Curtis and Clive did a parallel Tuesday ride to that Buster was running and today, Andy, Kelly, my RideLondon buddy Jason and I rode out at 08:00 am at the same time as Rex, Curtis, Tim, Hovis and Nelly, our pelotons passing as we travelled in opposite directions .. I just wish I had my camera on as it would have been quite a shot.

When I started training for the 2013 AVP 100 miler, Andy picked out this great 40 mile route to Honiton through Sidmouth to Ottery returning via Stockland hill and it's become quite a favourite of mine since. Today, to mix things up a little, we cycled this route in reverse.

The highlight of this ride for me is always the cake stop at the Boston Tea Party, so this had to be included in the itinerary, as was my first ever cycle through the Sid ford, a bee in the helmet for both Andy and I, and a must for any ride concluding in Seaton during daylight .. a final coffee at the Broom Wagon! All of this has been captured, as you'd expect in stills and my latest video http://youtu.be/SIKunMB8XOw

The training is nearing an end!
