9th October 2008: Wettenhall

Two riders had already arrived and were enjoying tea and teacakes when the last two arrived at the Manley Mere Windsurfing Centre. Possible destinations considered included Great Budworth and Bunbury but we eventually settled on Wettenhall. Ray suggested a couple of routes and with everyone’s agreement kindly offered to lead. Leaving the Windsurfing Centre we were soon negotiating the lanes on a fascinating brisk ride through Manley, Ashton, Kelsall, Tarporley, Beeston, Tilstone Fearnall and on to the Boot and Slipper at Wettenhall. The staff were welcoming, the food good and the beer excellent. The return to Chester via Acton (Nantwich), Brindley, Peckforton and the Ice Cream Farm for afternoon tea was just as interesting. As one rider commented “we were only ever about ten miles from my home but we covered lanes I never knew existed.” Thanks go to Ray for leading such an interesting ride that kept us guessing as to where the route would go next.
Distance from Chester and back 60 miles.
