28 March - 3 April

Mon - Took recumbent up to Kevin @ D.Tek in Little Thetford.  An amazing steptoe yard of literally dozens of recumbents piled up.  What Kevin doesn't know about recumbents could be written on a postage stamp.  Tried out two ICE trikes, like the Sprint...but its 2,500 new so maybe not buy one just yet.

Tue, Wed, Thur, Fri - Mini break to Holland to see dafs & tulips at the Kerchenhof Gardens.  Stayed at Gent, Haarlem and Utrecht, all lovely old quarters around canals and pedestrianised/very bike friendly. fantastic to see how integrated the bike culture is, its just part of normal life with all cycling in everyday clothes on classic Dutch bikes, many with kids and/or cargo carriers.  Some beautiful designs - take a look at http://www.vanmoof.com.

Sat - Cycled to vill a couple of times and to Rose & Crown for Darvells drinkies in the evening.

Sun - Due to communication issues, I didn't know we were CycleSocing in the morning, so it ended up a dash to get up at 7:35 to be at Amersham at 8:05!  Then good ride with a couple of hills in a loop around Chesham.  21 miles.
