Mystery Run - 20th February

The first mystery run of the year took place yesterday on the 20th of February. Geoff Lomax led six people on five bikes on a run up the Antrim Coast. The weather was fine and sunny with a bit of a wind in evidence. The team stopped for coffee, scones and a warm up at the Londonderry Arms Hotel in Carnlough before continuing northwards to Ballycastle. An excellent lunch was taken in the Marine Hotel but Michael Sweeney was sickened to find that Manchester United had beaten Leeds by one goal to nil. Michael could not care tuppence for Leeds Utd. you understand but he works with some with some insufferable ManU bores and would have liked to see them weep on Monday.

After a protracted lunch where Lewis Cherry regaled all with tales of courtroom deeds and foreign tours past the run continued along the coast past Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge and the Giants Causway to Portrush. All went their separate ways after completing a lap of the North West 200 course (at legal speeds, M'Lud). Come one - come all to the next mystery run.
