Sunday 23 October 1983
10:00 - 18:00
Day ride: Challacombe Down
5 Participants: Mike Bowden, Colin Brierly, Jean Brierly, John Stuart, Richard Wiseman
Very different weather for a trip on the moors on the 23rd October, and nice to have Mike Bowden join us for a change. Only John Stuart at Bickington, although we expected Thomas from Plymouth so waited for a while. When we started moving, Mike found he had a flat tyre and then a couple of older Mid Devon folk stopped for a chat, so that we were more than a little late by the time we did start the drag up to Haytor.

We abandoned the idea of Challacombe Down and settled down in the lovely warm sunshine with our backs to Bonehill Rocks for a leisurely lunch. An invitation to a “cuppa” at Mike and Liz’s house at Kingsteignton soon had us rocketing down off Trendlebere in the direction to take up the offer.
