The following week for the AGM, only Basil, Colin and myself rode out since the weather was rather poor (cold, wet and windy). The wind had caused a great fall of chestnuts down in Compton and so we spent a while collecting some bedraggled specimens and then continued through the lanes to Abbotskerswell and Newton Abbot, stopping at Kingsteignton to repair a puncture.

For the final leg we climbed up the ridge above Chudleigh and then had a swift descent into the village and on to Chudleigh Knighton.
