WEDNESDAY WANDERERS’ REPORTS
WEDNESDAY RIDE – 9 February 2022
We Rode to Chidlow and Had a Cup of Coffee
From Reluctant Scribe to Ride-Leader Peter K
Peter K offered to lead our group of nineteen up to the Bay Tree Café in Chidlow via Brigadoon and O’Brien’s
with Mike P riding tail-gun. He spiced the ride up with excursions through Boulonnais Drive, Rolling Hills and
Wooroloo, and got us all to the café (just) before thirst became a nuisance.
Karen and I had a pie each, and they were very tasty with chunky meat rather than the thickened gravy often
masquerading as an ersatz filling. Food and drink were served, time passed, boasts were made,
reminiscences were shared, opinions were offered (some were served rather than offered), and I decided to
ask Pete whether he’d be up to scribbling a few words about the ride. He answered with a great paucity of
enthusiasm “What do you want me to say? We rode to Chidlow and had a cup of coffee?” Well, yes Pete. I
think that’ll do quite nicely.
