23 November - A Group ride to Walliswood

The team today consisted of 11 players. I had taken over from Ged at centre forward, Geoff volunteered to be in goal at the back, and Mark rode up and down the wing a lot. Everyone else chose their own position and moved about the field depending on how much puff they had.

From the off a lot of energy was shown and despite the opposition (of the hills) we efficiently made it to half time at The Scarlett Arms in Walliswood where a warm welcome and good food were served.

In the second half, after changing direction, the wind was in our faces but we battled on until we reached Westhumble where the whistle was blown and we retired to Pilgrim Cycles for tea and celebration of our victory.

Thanks to Geoff for playing in goal, Mark for the match analysis and photo (post below), and to the rest of the team for turning out.
