Devil Cake |
We took the hint from the Sunday riders and decided on a nice short route in the heat. Although it was actually a bit cooler this morning. Our quartet headed west along the Alban Way for a change, through by Berners Drive, Gorham Drive and Butterfield Lane to New Barnes Mill. A cheery greeting from some fast chaps on lightweight cycles coming along in the other direction. We’d be going faster too if we were going downhill!
A bit of a slog up Napsbury Lane and then a scamper down and voila! we are at Ayletts Nurseries. Astonishingly, this is our first 5MTF visit to Ayletts, although we were none of us individually strangers there. We picture for your delight the Devil Cake.

Painted nails |
We also show you the pink lemonade in the clutches of today’s youngest rider (age 12) who has painted her nails most beautifully.
The Dahlia Café was popular with cyclists today, we met a couple from the Forty Plus. Refreshed by cake and companionship, we allowed ourselves a little shopping time, then headed back to Fleetville using London Road, Highfield Park and Camp cycle routes.
