Much better than yesterday's banker. Any more can wait until my end of month round-up...

March 5th, Buckenham, Ipswich, Claydon, Needham Market, Stowmarket, Haughley, Wetherden, Elmswell, Norton, Thurston, Great Barton & Bury St. Edmunds, 77.2km, https://www.strava.com/activities/17612968549

(which should trigger @13 rider as it's 48 miles and I wanted a cold pint more than the extra 2 miles)

I think I'm just being trolled now in my own thread , A cold pint would still be cold after another 2 miles 😡😡 just think of that extra point you left out there
