Friday and Stuart is doing a ride called "the pig",which is a reference to a 14km climb near the end of the ride. He departs at 8.30 and at 9am I head to the reception area to see if there is a group that I can ride with.
There isn't.
The Sociables group isn't riding today, and most of the group decide to join up with the Inters group.
I know my limits, I would seriously hold this group up. So after everyone has departed, it looks like there is a group of one left.
I set off to a coffee stop that I have heard about, feeling a little down hearted, when I hear someone call my name!
Ellie arrived late and missed the departure of the group, and so we head off together to the wonderful coffee stop. Ellie didn't seem to mind my speed and we have a lovely natter, and the coffee was good!
Shortly after we leave the coffee spot, we meet up with Caroline and Tony, who have separated from the Inters group and we all head off to St Vincent, for what turns out to be a superb lunch. (Fresh grilled squid).
Then the rest of the Inters group turn up, and eventually we all move to Tolo's restaurant at Port Pollencia. So what started out as a fairly lonely day, ends as a very convivial fun day out!
