Nine riders today, we split into a Further Faster quintet and a Fabulous foursome.
The Fabulous riders headed off along the Alban Way, but turned off at Hill End Lane and looped through Highfield Park, down Nightingale Lane, along the A414 and up Highfield Lane. We had a short chat with the chickens at Highfield Farm, then continued up to Highfield Park again, and worked our way west along Highfield Park Drive and Herons Way and down to Ayletts.
Having enjoyed the dahlias we repaired to the Tea Tent for refreshments. Be advised the tea tent can take card payments only.
The Further Faster riders also headed off along the Alban Way and toured through Roestock, Colney Heath and Tyttenhanger, joining the others at Ayletts Celebration Garden for elevenses.
After coffee and chat we regrouped for the return to Fleetville, via the Camp cycle route.
