Well it was an early start for myself and Lootch heading away from Essex around 7:50 Sunday morning. Could feel the winter is rapidly aproaching and did at one point wonder if it's worth while getting out of my warm bed.

We stopped about 30 miles away from Amesbury with numb bum taking it's toll.

After a quick cup of coffee we headed off to the plains and an early water start awaited us, Lootch coming through :D

Miles and miles of gravel, this is the 3rd time I went to the plains and every time I ride new roads!

This was shortly after I came off in a very small unsuspecting road, alot of warning signs and we missed the ones which said out of bounds untill the ranger told us �£30 fine or make your way out of here :shock:

Final stop before we headed back home after a very good day out on the gravel.
