Sarah was feeling wiped out when it came to our weekend cycle ride. It may have had something to do with the long run in stifling heat she had completed the previous day. Instead, Andy S stepped in for a socially distanced bike ride. It was the first time we had met up since the coronavirus pandemic lockdown had begun.

Our weekend cycle ride took us to Henbury this time out.
