I rode mine round the block this afternoon. Popped into Dom's Bike Stop in Leominster for a cuppa char, then headed for Hereford, turned off on the Gloucester road, picked up the Worcester-Hereford road and turned off on the Worcester-Leominster road and home. It was slightly hot! You should try this run @cookiemonster. It's a nice hours ride.

I actually did something similar about 6 weeks ago. Your right it is a good ride.

I missed the turning for Doms first time but they do a nice sausage sarnie.

I'll have to meet you there sometime.
