Sampford Spiney

Sue came with Bryan W. from Norfolk, who used to cycle with us years ago, so 8 at the start, but no George.We soon found him at the start of the cycle pathwith the railway station tea lady.

We made our way to Knightstone tearoom, where we enjoyed our coffee in the sunshine. Iris returned home, we continued via Crapstone to Horrabridge, along the back road to Grenofen and on to Whitchurch Down. Most had not been along that lane, so something new.

At lunch at Sampford Spiney, Sue wanted to know, if there was a reason for me wearing my t-shirt inside out. Well I had been a bit in a hurry in the morning and had not noticed. We were surrounded by meadows with alpaca, a range of colours and sizes. They posed for lots of photos, very cute. We left them eventually and cycled over Huckworthy Bridge to Walkhampton and back to Yelverton.Sue and Bryan returned home, as they had to look after Bryan’s dogs. We stopped for tea in Sonya’s cafe and then back on the cycle path. Slow progress, due to lots of people and loose dogs, at one stage only George’s extreme agility stopped him going down the bank. A lovely leisurely day out, thank to all.

    You gave us a fantastic sunny day Anna, and a lovely ride – Thanks. And I would still have been oblivious had you not mentioned your t-shirt!
