ACME Peloton 'B' took the gentlemanly pace option, on the pretext of looking after JEM, still recovering from illness. Actually our pace only fell by about 1kph overall, compared to the first leg, but we did go for full value stops, including a picnic outside Wymondham Waitrose and ice creams in Needham Market, followed by coffee at the excellent Mini-Huggy al-fresco control! We did keep passing some of the 'Professional Full-Value Riders' including ACME's 'Lanterne Rouge' trophy holder Calvin. He might justifiably have found this a little annoying, but dealt with it in his usual good humoured way.
We finished about 2 hours down on the 'A' Peloton, enjoyed beers and salty snacks at the Station Buffet, got cold all of a sudden and headed for trains/cars home.
Sorry to hear about the 'off' a rider had on the Creeting road - we saw the air ambulance fly over. Best wishes for a speedy recovery to him.
The Bentley bluebell woods were on top form, as were the yellow fields. Great day out, fantastic weather and good company, only marred by news of the unfortunate accident and a few ignorant motorists, mainly on the road to Dereham.
