Monday 12th May we were at
the Artichoke Christow for Forrest Stumps trail but no sign of him? Instead the
trail 5mile+ trail including several L/S splits and a fruit stop had been well
laid by FORREST HUMP, SLACKER and pal AARON . It was a demanding run with some long climbs up from the village but
the scenery the bluebell woods and the gushing streams were well worth, over
fields, footpaths and around Kennick Reservoir we ran, being most grateful to
reach the fruit stop and refuel even though it was at a “Fish Hook”! Back in
the great atmosphere of the Artichoke a welcomed beer plus some excellent
sausage and chips went down well! SOAPY was doing her usual good job of
collecting subs from the “unpaid” members along with sponsorship for the
forthcoming NAKED CYCLE RIDE in support of Breast Cancer Care a ride that she
is doing with MELLON PICKER, HORNIE and PORK TORPEDO who had both joined us for
the evening hope the saddles are soft! We received a phone call on speaker from Forrest who had “hidden” in Market Harborough just in-case we were looking for
him!
DDs were awarded to the
following offenders …initially to RAMBO for almost hitting BIN LADEN’S new pick
up truck, but as WIDE RECEIVER had lost the Hat, Rambo returned the Chicken Hat
to him plus a DD !
DESERATE HOUSE WIFE was next,
for almost knocking a cyclist off the road on her way to Christow.
SLACKER next for placing a
“Fish Hook 8” at the Fruit Stop !
