Day 1 - Lindum Spirit (Wednesday)

Arrived Wednesday afternoon to be greeted by a parade of walking wounded (Thay,Jane C & Lesley Owens). They say trouble comes in three's, so let's hope that's the end of it!

Having chosen our spot we set up camp. Luckily, the rain showers which had been forecast did not materialise but it was a little overcast at times.

We eagerly awaited the appearance of the first riders. As they passed, they showed off the new bright orange bibs bearing the name of Lindum's new main sponsors Equillibrium. It was a good turn out and we hope everyone enjoyed their evening ride. We hope the runners from the Run & Ride class don't suffer too much tomorrow.

On the way back to the venue we stopped to watch a barn owl quartering a field, I never tire of watching these beautiful birds.

The presentations went well and then we made our way back to Harrogate with the anticipation of watching our daughter Isabel and classmates doing their Year Six Leavers Assembly tomorrow. We're really sorry we can't be with you all tomorrow but I know you'll understand. Thanks go to Peter for stepping in. Hope you all have a fun day.

See you all bright and early Friday.
