9th March 2023: Clotton (mod)

 I was driving to Chester on the M56 for a last minute dental appointment, and reflecting on the appalling conditions for any outdoor activity. It was wet, with sleet sweeping across the landscape and very cold. More of the same was expected all day, Nevertheless, Matt and Dave Matthews turned up at Meadow Lea, and in the intrepid spirit of Chester Easy Riders, one of them was daft enough to undertake a short ride. So it was that Matt on a recumbent trike had a semi tobogganing short ride in the area. Evidently he met Ivan walking his dog on the Greenway, and Ivan told him that he must have been mad! Thanks for the photos Matt, they almost make it look pleasant.

  1. Quite mad. Especially that dog-leg across the A51 out of corkscrew lane. Then up Roughlow and over the Yeld in snow! Where did the grip come from?
