Pleased to have Julie Lewis out with us for part of the day on the Hembury Castle run – it may be as well that Colin (Lewis, Julie’s father, owner of Colin Lewis Cycles in Paignton) didn’t get the message right that it was a day run, in view of the rather muddy stuff that the local lads found during the afternoon. I’m not too sure whether the other two newcomers, Anthony and Stephen, appreciated it but we all appreciated the Downies’ hospitality for tea and scones afterwards.
