As did quite a few others.
18 of us started, we had a very wet ride to Cholderton, after which the weather moderated and we had a nice sunny afternoon.
Debris on the road resulted in 2 punctures for me and 1 for my wheelman Micky, but we'd come prepared with ample extra tubes and the 35mm tyres on my new bike are easy to get on and off the rims.
15 of us made it back to Arivee at the Harvest Home.
A good day out despite the weather.

Today I was called into work on my day off to take our pool car to Kwik Fit for a puncture to be repaired prior to the Night Shift coming on duty. I think I've now done my quota of puncture repairs for the month.
