Bit of a chilly one this morning but that not deter myself or 7 other riders including a guest Darwen Dasher. A very social pace was set up to Giggleswick and then on the minor road to Little Stainforth black ice was encountered which led to 2 falls and 1 rider going off road! The lane up past Knight Stainforth campsite threatened to have some of us off again so we cut back over the bridge to the main Settle-Horton road and continued to Blind Beck cafe where we lingered for Xmas pudd. We stuck to the main road on the return home at an even slower pace until we started splitting at Clitheroe for our journeys home.

Stats: 64 miles, 15 average, 2 very sore & bruised fingers.
