The Grafham Gander.
For those that were tucked up well in bed this morning a group of hearty souls (some say stupid) made their way over to Yelden Village Hall for Bacon Butties tea and biscuits, and more tea etc., before setting off through the villages of Dean, Never Dean, Shelton, Kimbolton, Tillbrooke , Dillingham, Perry and Ellington before calling in at the Visitor centre for further refreshments and a little respite from the British Summer time. Before return leg back to Yelden village hall where Ralph had laid on more tea and cakes!
Ralph our local EACC runs organiser once again did everyone proud and despite the dampness of the day (most were soaked) none more so that the foolhardy { just Fool} who arrived without any coat or waterproofs at all ………….and still did the ride and had a smile on his face!
There were 10 members on tiddlers plus Trev Ros’s baby Honda (125cc?) Short Legs on the CB 250, Rod on the Enfield and Mark on the panther together with four or five additional EACC members on four wheels including Ralph and Big Al following behind with the support vehicles unnecessary I am pleased to say. Ralph continued to apologise about the poor weather but it was great to see the enjoyment we managed to give those at Grafham as they watched the water running off, or in my case out of our wet gear!
Final mention is reserved for the gentleman sorry, I missed his name who came over from Bury St Edmunds especially they say for Ralph’s Bacon Butties……………and there you were thinking you had it nice and easy just lying in bed listening to the rain on your window.
