Early rain cleared up by 9.30, so nine riders, led by Alan, had a dry and mild longer ride. Although we arrived at the Tardebigge Court café during the Saturday opening hours posted on the door, the café was closed. Plan B was a coffee break a few miles past the halfway point, at the Morso café in Alvechurch.

(ii) The regular Saturday ride
For the short ride, Steven led fifteen cyclists, including two new riders, Julie and Billy. Conditions were dry and mild. Sadly, Dave abandoned because he punctured, electing to lock up and walk home for his car. The route visited Dawberry Fields Neighbourhood Park in Brandwood, before passing both Lifford and Wychall Reservoirs along the River Rea. Coffee was taken at Sainsbury's in Northfield, with the return along Merritt's Brook.
The route is here.
