Revisited this track for a quick ride with Mum,
We were looking to make it to the Country Park at Southwater -Ho hum, the best laid plans of mice, men and mad cyclists from Sussex !!
We found the track drier than last time (unless you went off the sides of the path) and Mum was much more confident.
As we rode along we could here some odd noises from Mum’s bike – utoh !
As we just reached 1 mile we had to stop for an oncoming pack of riders, a fortuitous stop as it happens :-O
After the pack had passed Mum went to move off and something caught my eye, her pedal crank was flapping about unsupported.
I called off the ride and we startede to head back pushing the bikes.
Mum suggested that I ride out and she would meet me at the car, so i rode back and went @ 1/2 mile past the station and then rode back to meet Mum (I then rode in bottom gear alongside Mum walking back to the car).
So I managed 3.48 miles, Mum got 2 miles.
