  Hi Andy
  
  Any plans for next week Tuesday’s (3 December) cycle ride yet? I’m going away for the weekend but will try to remember to check the forum. The ride is firmly on my calendar 😁 so count me in even when I’m late responding.
  
  Regards
  
  Hella

  Keeping my eye on the weather. Looking dry but cold at the moment, so probably a shorter ride to, say, Stansted Garden Centre.

    I haven’t sent one yet. I’m concerned about ice. Metcheck is showing temperatures getting close to 0°C. Still watching the forecast.

  Forecast has improved (slightly). All the sites I monitor say the temperature will stay above freezing overnight, so I think we’re on for tomorrow.

  A tale of woe.
  
  Having fixed the puncture, I got as far as the Billy trail, having put on some speed to try to catch up. I then punctured again – back wheel again. Another flint but high up on the sidewall which is unusual. I think I must have picked it up while the tyre was deflating the first time.
  
  Anyhow, I had no spare tubes left and figured nature was telling me something, so I abandoned.
  
  I left a message on Mike’s phone which I hope you got so you weren’t waiting for me at the garden centre.
