Cycle rides to Middlewich are becoming a bit of a jinx for Sarah. She had been due to lead today, but following a serious fall on yesterday’s Women on Wheels ride this was not possible. And she has form having to miss the same ride a couple of years ago (A tale of a broken foot and a ride to Middlewich). Thankfully, Andy S stepped in to lead instead, and I was the back-leader.

It was a cool and slightly damp morning as fifteen Stockport Community Cycling Club members met at Bramhall Library on the final Sunday before Christmas for a ride to Gawsworth. I was leading the ride, and Sarah was the back-leader (and chief photographer!). Leaving Bramhall we set off through Woodford. And on to Mottram St Andrew.

This virus continued exerting its effect throughout this last week. In the early part I struggled and then as I began to recover Sarah started to struggle. It has played havoc with our Greater Manchester Marathon training. Unfortunately Sarah was still feeling unwell and so was unable to come along to today’s Stockport Community Cycling Club ride to Henbury. In such…
