After last Sunday’s good turnout, the numbers continued to be good this week as a few people returned from holiday to the prospect of coffee and cakes at the Beningborough Farm Shop.  We kicked off the ride heading out through Farnham, Staveley and Minskip, before continuing onto Beningborough through Aldborough, The Dunsforths and Ouseburn.  We made good time out to Beningborough with and average speed of 17.2 mph which meant we got there before the doors opened.

After a very good refuelling stop of coffee, cakes and pork pies (Lyn!!) we braced ourselves for the return trip to Harrogate, which was mainly going to be into a headwind.  We return through Whixley, Cattal and Cowthorpe, before heading up into Knaresborough (for one last quick coffee stop) and up the hill into Harrogate.

A really nice ride in sunny and blustery conditions: http://connect.garmin.com/activity/45673936
