Costa Coffee, city centre

Thanks to Richard for this report of the ride he led on Saturday, and for mapping the route.  

A brave or foolhardy 7 set out in high winds and sub zero temperatures to Costa in the City Centre via the canal and Edgbaston Reservoir.  A sign of the wind strength was when two fishermen we spoke to on the Reservoir said they were giving up because the waves were too high. 

A much more pleasant return via the Rea Valley route with the wind at our backs and a brief glimpse of the sun.

The route is here.
