Lizzie's Farm Lydiate Ash

A chilly start today but 11 riders soon warmed up to a trip to Lizzie's Farm at Lydiate Ash. 

A slightly different route than usual as can be seen by the attached map. Staff at the Farm as welcoming

as ever and even though they were very busy thanked us for our continued support throughout the year.

Nice to see that many of the group tried the home made cakes and basked in some warm sunshine. The route is  here

Wednesday 3 August - Warley Woods
