Around 20 Tritons met at the Blackheath t-hut on Sunday 21st June for our annual social ride, setting off at 8am on the club’s now familiar 70km loop.
Halfway in, the group hit Eat’N’Mess for the usual cake and coffee stop. The queue was slightly longer than anyone bargained for as other clubs seemed to have elected for the same stopping strategy. Nonetheless it provided a much needed refueling and hydrating opportunity.
With high temperatures throughout, the ride remained no drop, with helpers positioned to support all riders and keep everyone on route. Particular well done to the novice riders for completing the distance and getting up Star Hill.
Many thanks to all those who helped, in particular Louise for organising, and Dom, David and Ian for leading and sweeping the novices.
