Get stuffed

This week the three Amigos were unable to ride together, but I met up with my best school freind Melanie and her husband Steve, it was her birthday and we took a gentle 10 mile ride to the Flower Pot at Aston for lunch, where we were joined by their son George.

This pub is quite interesting as it is full of stuffed fish, wild boar, foxes, stoats and many other strange creatures.


The 3 Amigos have passed by before but never entered, so it was down to the Thomas family to give the chips a saddle rating, there was considerable discussion with scores ranging from 3 saddles to 5 and so we have taken the average which is 4 saddles to the chips, the beer scored 5 saddles which is very good considering that Steve used to own a brewing pub and still makes excellent beer at home.


We were there for at least 2 hours and then wobbled our way home the 10 miles, so just 20 miles this time, and to think I used to consider 20 miles a long ride, what a difference a few bike rides make.
