Good turnout for the Dorset Rough Riders on another sunny day

Hardtail hell to the beech tree avenue

We cleared Gabby’s stock of goodies 😀


Above the Tarrant valley, note those pesky black flies

Oh the perils of having the ride leader at the back

Don’t think we were meant to ride through here

Down to Minchington


Wimborne Model Aero club in action (age and gender specific)

Even the drag up to Harley Gap was a decent ride today

Four candles?

Nasty little climb at Sovell Down

Now don’t forget the deep ford at the bottom…….


Perfect end

35 miles if starting from the Willetts. We split the group at the end to let the faster riders get back quicker.

Looks like a lovely route again! Would have come but was away. Looking forward to my next DRR ride!

Lets hope this weather holds out for another week as I’m one of those who’s got 11 consecutive days off by using 3 days annual leave 🙂

Anna, when you get to the Willett Arms make sure you park at the far end of the CP. Landlord got a bit stroppy with us yesterday.
