It’s Pimms o’clock … again
For those that saw me polish off Guaca Mole’s jugs of Pimms on Saturday evening, it will come as no surprise that I started this Chilterns epic where I finished off the night before. In my defence, it was a surprise when Steven offered Tony and myself a pre-ride ‘sharpener’; but when have I ever refused a free drink?
Here comes summer (fingers crossed)
Pre-ride faffage and trips to the undergrowth…

Ride report Wed evening, 15 May – Lone Mole leaves the burrow
I wasn’t expecting to see anyone at the garage as I rode up Eastwick Road at 7.30pm, my forum post eliciting a sole response from Kev telling me that it would be ‘Dark side only’ for him. It was clearly an omen that he ended up stuck on the M25, and I don’t think managed to get a ride in […]

A simple cross country ride to Reigate and Gatton Park on the Orange Gyro
Ride report – Sunday 5th May 2013 – Bank Holiday Sun?
A simpleplan to take in a long route to Newlands and enjoy as many miles as possible in the Bank Holiday sunshine.
May Day Fun
A small and (I’d like to think) perfectly formed company of Moles met for the ride in ‘late spring’ evening sunshine.
